OpenJDK: non-constant time comparisons in crypto code (JCE, 8074865)

It was discovered that the JCE component in OpenJDK failed to use constant time comparisons in multiple cases. An attacker could possibly use these flaws to disclose sensitive information by measuring the time used to perform operations using these non-constant time comparisons...

Cloudminr Bitcoin Hack Exposes Data on 80,000

Attackers were able to break into servers belonging to Bitcoin cloud-mining platform Cloudminr.io last week and harvest the site’s entire database. Now hackers are attempting to sell the information, which includes thousands of unencrypted usernames, email addresses, and passwords. Cloudminr, a...

Amazon Releases S2N TLS Crypto Implementation to Open Source

Amazon today released to open source its own TLS implementation called s2n, which stands for signal to noise. While admittedly not meant to be a replacement for OpenSSL, for example, s2n is a slimmed-down crypto implementation analogous to libssl, the OpenSSL library that supports TLS. Amazon chi...

PITA Side-Channel Crypto Key Attack

It’s unlikely that anyone envisioned the evolution of cryptographic key thievery to include leavened flatbread, but that’s where we’ve arrived. Researchers from Tel Aviv University in Israel are expected in September to present a paper at the Workshop on Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded System...

Kernel: crypto: buffer overruns in RFC4106 implementation using AESNI

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Intel AES-NI instructions optimized version of the RFC4106 GCM mode decryption functionality handled fragmented packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash, or potentially escalate their privileges on, a system over a...
