Bug 948515 (CVE-2024-13176) – <dev-libs/openssl-{3.1.8, 3.2.4, 3.3.3}: Timing side-channel in ECDSA signature computation

• Product: Gentoo Security
• Status: IN_PROGRESS ---

[Description Christopher Fore 2025-01-21 21:42:45 UTC]

CVE-2024-13176:

A timing side-channel in ECDSA signature computations could allow recovering the private key by an attacker. However, measuring the timing would require either local access to the signing application or a very fast network connection with low latency.


The above will be fixed in: 3.3.3, 3.2.4, 3.1.8, and 3.0.16.

The fix is also available in commit 77c608f4 (for 3.4), commit 392dcb33 (for 3.3), commit 4b1cb94 (for 3.2), commit 2af62e74 (for 3.1) and commit 07272b05 (for 3.0) in the OpenSSL git repository.

Releases are out now.

I've started bumping these but may not finish until later.
