This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0553)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.

Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fox for #VU83316 (CVE-2023-5981).


2) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5981)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.


3) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28834)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a side-channel attack when using the gnutls_privkey_sign_data2 API function with the "GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_REPRODUCIBLE" flag. A remote attacker can launch Minerva attack and gain access to sensitive information.
