Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy in GnuTLS - CVE-2024-0553

Published: January 21, 2024


Vulnerability identifier: #VU85623
CSH Severity: Medium
CVSS v4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0553
CWE-ID: CWE-208
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

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).
