CVE-2023-52323

Published: 5 January 2024

PyCryptodome and pycryptodomex before 3.19.1 allow side-channel leakage for OAEP decryption, exploitable for a Manger attack.

Notes

AuthorNote
mdeslaur
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and older contain a substantially older
codebase which would require major intrusive changes to
remediate all side-channel attacks. Due to the high risk of
regressions, we will not be fixing this issue in focal and
older. If this issue is critical in your environment, we
recommend migrating to a more recent version of Ubuntu.
