CVE-2023-49092

RustCrypto/RSA is a portable RSA implementation in pure Rust. Due to a non-constant-time implementation, information about the private key is leaked through timing information which is observable over the network. An attacker may be able to use that information to recover the key. There is currently no fix available. As a workaround, avoid using the RSA crate in settings where attackers are able to observe timing information, e.g. local use on a non-compromised computer.

### Impact Due to a non-constant-time implementation, information about the private key is leaked through timing information which is observable over the network. An attacker may be able to use that information to recover the key. ### Patches No patch is yet available, however work is underway to migrate to a fully constant-time implementation. ### Workarounds The only currently available workaround is to avoid using the `rsa` crate in settings where attackers are able to observe timing information, e.g. local use on a non-compromised computer is fine. ### References This vulnerability was discovered as part of the "[Marvin Attack]", which revealed several implementations of RSA including OpenSSL had not properly mitigated timing sidechannel attacks.

RustCrypto/RSA es una implementación RSA portátil en Rust puro. Debido a una implementación de tiempo no constante, la información sobre la clave privada se filtra a través de información de tiempo que es observable en la red. Un atacante puede utilizar esa información para recuperar la clave. Actualmente no hay ninguna solución disponible. Como workaround, evite utilizar la caja RSA en entornos donde los atacantes puedan observar información de tiempo, por ejemplo, el uso local en una maquina no comprometida.
