CWE-208

185 CVEs • Abstraction: Base

Observable Timing Discrepancy

Two separate operations in a product require different amounts of time to complete, in a way that is observable to an actor and reveals security-relevant information about the state of the product, such as whether a particular operation was successful or not.

A security vulnerability has been identified in the cryptlib cryptographic library when cryptlib is compiled with the support for RSA key exchange ciphersuites in TLS (by setting the USE_RSA_SUITES define), it will be vulnerable to the timing variant of the Bleichenbacher attack. An attacker that is able to perform a large number of connections to the server will be able to decrypt RSA ciphertexts or forge signatures using server's certificate. THIS CVE ID IS CURRENTLY DISPUTED - MAINTAINER NOTE: There are only two situations where it's enabled, one is for fuzz-testing to exercise code paths that wouldn't otherwise be available, the other is for static source code analysis with tools like Coverity and Prefast, again to open up code paths that otherwise wouldn't be available. It can also be enabled manually in two specific test builds just to make sure the code still compiles OK, to avoid bit rot and verify that the fuzz-testing build will compile without errors.Show less

The AES implementation in the Texas Instruments OMAP L138 (secure variants), present in mask ROM, suffers from a timing side channel which can be exploited by an adversary with non-secure supervisor privileges by managing cache contents and collecting timing information for different ciphertext inputs. Using this side channel, the SK_LOAD secure kernel routine can be used to recover the Customer Encryption Key (CEK).Show less

Oppia is an online learning platform. When comparing a received CSRF token against the expected token, Oppia uses the string equality operator (`==`), which is not safe against timing attacks. By repeatedly submitting invalid tokens, an attacker can brute-force the expected CSRF token character by character. Once they have recovered the token, they can then submit a forged request on behalf of a logged-in user and execute privileged actions on that user's behalf. In particular the function to validate received CSRF tokens is at `oppia.core.controllers.base.CsrfTokenManager.is_csrf_token_valid`. An attacker who can lure a logged-in Oppia user to a malicious website can perform any change on Oppia that the user is authorized to do, including changing profile information; creating, deleting, and changing explorations; etc. Note that the attacker cannot change a user's login credentials. An attack would need to complete within 1 second because every second, the time used in computing the token changes. This issue has been addressed in commit `b89bf80837` which has been included in release `3.3.2-hotfix-2`. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.Show less

Saleor Core is a composable, headless commerce API. Saleor's `validate_hmac_signature` function is vulnerable to timing attacks. Malicious users could abuse this vulnerability on Saleor deployments having the Adyen plugin enabled in order to determine the secret key and forge fake events, this could affect the database integrity such as marking an order as paid when it is not. This issue has been patched in versions 3.7.68, 3.8.40, 3.9.49, 3.10.36, 3.11.35, 3.12.25, and 3.13.16.Show less

An issue was discovered in Mailman Core before 3.3.5. An attacker with access to the REST API could use timing attacks to determine the value of the configured REST API password and then make arbitrary REST API calls. The REST API is bound to localhost by default, limiting the ability for attackers to exploit this, but can optionally be made to listen on other interfaces.Show less
