Descriptions

x86_64/ecc-384-modp.asm in Nettle before 3.2 does not properly handle carry propagation and produces incorrect output in its implementation of the P-384 NIST elliptic curve, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.

x86_64/ecc-384-modp.asm en Nettle en versiones anteriores a 3.2 no maneja correctamente la propagación de acarreo y produce una salida incorrecta en su implementación de la curva elíptica P-384 NIST, lo que permite a atacantes tener un impacto no especificado a través de vectores desconocidos.
