FreeBSD : liboqs -- Secret-dependent branching in HQC (aeac223e-60e1-11f0-8baa-8447094a420f)

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the aeac223e-60e1-11f0-8baa-8447094a420f advisory. The OpenQuantumSafe project reports: Secret-dependent branching in HQC reference implementation when...

CVE-2025-52473

CVE-2025-52473 affects the liboqs HQC KEM reference implementation. When compiled with Clang at optimization levels above -O0, the code contains secret-dependent branches that enable a proof-of-concept local attack to recover the entire secret key. The vulnerability is fixed in version 0.14.0. Im...

CVE-2025-52473 liboqs secret-dependent branching in HQC reference implementation when compiled with Clang 17-20

liboqs is a C-language cryptographic library that provides implementations of post-quantum cryptography algorithms. Multiple secret-dependent branches have been identified in the reference implementation of the HQC key encapsulation mechanism when it is compiled with Clang for optimization levels...
