A timing based side-channel exists in the libgcrypt RSA implementation which could be sufficient to recover a plaintext across a network in a Bleichenbacher style attack. To achieve successful decryption an attacker would have to be able to send a large number of trial messages for decryption. The vulnerability affects all RSA padding modes: PKCS#1 v1.5, RSA-OAEP, and RSASVE.
