Side Channel Attack

libcryptopp.so is vulnerable to Timing Attack. The vulnerability arises from non-constant time scalar multiplication in ecp.cpp prime field curves with small leakage and algebra.cpp binary field curves with large leakage. This leakage allows an attacker to measure the duration of hundreds to...

Information disclosure

Crypto++ 8.3.0 and earlier contains a timing side channel in ECDSA signature generation. This allows a local or remote attacker, able to measure the duration of hundreds to thousands of signing operations, to compute the private key used. The issue occurs because scalar multiplication in ecp.cpp...
