Descriptions

libgcrypt before version 1.7.8 is vulnerable to a cache side-channel attack resulting into a complete break of RSA-1024 while using the left-to-right method for computing the sliding-window expansion. The same attack is believed to work on RSA-2048 with moderately more computation. This side-channel requires that attacker can run arbitrary software on the hardware where the private RSA key is used.

libgcrypt en versiones anteriores a la 1.7.8 es vulnerable a un ataque de canal lateral de memoria caché, resultando en una brecha completa de RSA-1024 cuando se utiliza un método left-to-right para procesar la expansión de la ventana deslizante. Se cree que el mismo ataque funciona en RSA-2048 con un nivel de procesamiento moderadamente mayor. Este canal lateral necesita que el atacante pueda ejecutar software arbitrario en el hardware en donde se utiliza la clave privada RSA.
