Timing Side-channel Attacks

vllm is vulnerable to Timing side-channel attacks. The vulnerability is due to timing discrepancies during the prefill phase by the PageAttention mechanism reusing matching prefix chunks, which speeds up token generation and allows an attacker to infer prompt similarity or presence...

CVE-2024-25714

In Rhonabwy through 1.1.13, HMAC signature verification uses a strcmp function that is vulnerable to side-channel attacks, because it stops the comparison when the first difference is spotted in the two signatures. The fix uses gnutlsmemcmp, which has constant-time execution...

CVE-2022-48251

The AES instructions on the ARMv8 platform do not have an algorithm that is "intrinsically resistant" to side-channel attacks. NOTE: the vendor reportedly offers the position "while power side channel attacks ... are possible, they are not directly caused by or related to the Arm architecture."...
