Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2016-02-23 19:59 - Updated: 2025-04-12 10:46
Severity ?
Summary
The ecc_256_modp function in ecc-256.c in Nettle before 3.2 does not properly handle carry propagation and produces incorrect output in its implementation of the P-256 NIST elliptic curve, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8805.
