An issue was discovered in wolfSSL before 5.7.0. A safe-error attack via
Rowhammer, namely FAULT+PROBE, leads to ECDSA key disclosure. When
WOLFSSL_CHECK_SIG_FAULTS is used in signing operations with private ECC
keys,
such as in server-side TLS connections, the connection is halted if any
fault occurs.Β The success rate in a certain amount of connection requests
can be processed via an advanced technique for ECDSA key recovery.
