4.7
Medium
| Vector | AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
wolfSSL version 5.8.4
Description
The software contains a flaw in the constant-time masking logic within the
sp 256 get entry 256 9 function. When compiled with GCC targeting RISC-V RV32I using the -O3 optimization flag, the logic is altered into conditional branches. This change compromises the side-channel resistance of Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) scalar multiplication, potentially enabling a local attacker to retrieve secret keys through timing analysis.Recommendations
Avoid compiling wolfSSL version 5.8.4 with GCC targeting RISC-V RV32I using the -O3 optimization flag.
