DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to decrypt traffic.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient enforcement of side channel resistant code paths. A remote attacker with ability to create a large number of signatures, where explicit parameters with no co-factor is present, can force the application to fall back to non-side channel resistant code pathsduring ECDSA signature operation and perform full key recovery.
