Comment 2 Ralf Senderek 2024-01-04 14:16:08 UTC
In all packages, provided by me, cryptlib is NOT compiled
with the support for RSA key exchange ciphersuites in TLS.
Consequently it is NOT vulnerable to the timing variant of the
Bleichenbacher attack.

This vulnerability requires modifying the cryptlib source code to disable
timing-attack-protection measures and to enable the use of a disabled
crypto mechanism which is otherwise physically absent from the compiled code.
Unless the user goes out of their way to modify the cryptlib source code
to make it vulnerable, cryptlib is not vulnerable to this attack.
