Issue summary: A timing side-channel which could potentially allow remote
recovery of the private key exists in the SM2 algorithm implementation on 64 bit
ARM platforms.
Impact summary: A timing side-channel in SM2 signature computations on 64 bit
ARM platforms could allow recovering the private key by an attacker..
While remote key recovery over a network was not attempted by the reporter,
timing measurements revealed a timing signal which may allow such an attack.
OpenSSL does not directly support certificates with SM2 keys in TLS, and so
this CVE is not relevant in most TLS contexts. However, given that it is
possible to add support for such certificates via a custom provider, coupled
with the fact that in such a custom provider context the private key may be
recoverable via remote timing measurements, we consider this to be a Moderate
severity issue.
The FIPS modules in 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this
issue, as SM2 is not an approved algorithm.
A flaw was found in the OpenSSL SM2 algorithm implementation on 64-bit ARM platforms. This vulnerability allows recovery of the private key via timing side-channel analysis during signature computations.
Отчет
The vulnerability was rated as Moderate because, while it could enable recovery of private keys through timing side-channel analysis on 64-bit ARM platforms, successful exploitation requires high-precision timing measurements and a specialized attack setup. OpenSSL does not natively support SM2 certificates in TLS, limiting the exposure in common use cases. The issue only becomes relevant in custom provider contexts where SM2 is enabled, further reducing the likelihood of widespread impact. Therefore, although the confidentiality impact is high if exploited, the practical attack complexity and limited applicability justify a Moderate severity rating.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
