GnuTLS is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Disclosure. The vulnerability is due to exploiting deterministic behavior in systems like GnuTLS, particularly when using the GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_REPRODUCIBLE flag, which can lead to a noticeable step in nonce size from 513 to 512 bits, exposing a potential timing side-channel.
