CVE-2019-14318

Crypto++ has a timing side-channel in ECDSA signature generation in version 8.3.0 and earlier. The underlying issue is non-constant-time scalar multiplication: ecp.cpp leaks scalar bit-length on prime-field curves and algebra.cpp leaks more on binary-field curves, enabling an attacker measuring d...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

openjdk is vulnerable to denial of service. It was discovered that crypto provider implementations in the JCE component of OpenJDK for crypto algorithms such as AES or SHA did not perform array bounds checks. This can lead to out-of-bounds access if compiler intrinsics were used instead of the Ja...
