Description
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Incorrect calculation (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-14813)
CWE-ID: CWE-682 - Incorrect Calculation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause cryptographic operations to fail.
The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation in G3413CTRBlockCipher when encrypting or decrypting more than 255 blocks. A remote attacker can supply data that exceeds this limit to cause cryptographic operations to fail.
The issue affects the GOST-R-3413-2015 CTR mode implementation because it uses a single-byte counter instead of a counter size aligned with the algorithm definition.
2) Covert Timing Channel (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-5598)
CWE-ID: CWE-385 - Covert Timing Channel
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a covert timing channel in FrodoEngine.java in the BC-JAVA core modules when performing cryptographic operations. A remote attacker can measure timing differences to disclose sensitive information.
