GHSA-58RR-W6GV-4P4H
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-10 03:30 – Updated: 2024-06-12 18:30
VLAI
Details
The Kyber reference implementation before 9b8d306, when compiled by LLVM Clang through 18.x with some common optimization options, has a timing side channel that allows attackers to recover an ML-KEM 512 secret key in minutes. This occurs because poly_frommsg in poly.c does not prevent Clang from emitting a vulnerable secret-dependent branch.
Severity
7.5 (High)
