It has been reported that libtomcrypt may be vulnerable to a Bleichenbacher attack due to a vulnerability in rsaverifyhash.c

CERT has provided the details from Intel Security Advanced Threat Research team. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bleichenbacher signature forgery attack in OP-TEE Background The implementation for RSA signature verification of PKCS 1 v1.5 in the Open Portable Trusted Execution Environment (https://github.com/OP-TEE/opteeos) appears to be vulnerable to a Bleichenbacher signature forgery attack. The vulnerability may result in RSA signature or public certificate forgery when a low public exponent (for example, e = 3) is used. Vulnerability The function rsaverifyhashex (https://github.com/OPTEE/opteeos/blob/master/core/lib/libtomcrypt/src/pk/rsa/rsaverifyhash.c) does not check the number of remaining bytes in the decrypted message after ASN.1 encoded data. The function decodes the ASN.1 message and checks that it has the correct structure and values (OID and hash). This permits additional data after the ASN.1 message that can be used to forge a PKCS1 v1.5 signature for keys with a low public exponent. The original variant of the attack is described here: https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/openpgp/current/msg00999.html

LibTomCrypt through 1.18.1 allows a memory-cache side-channel attack on ECDSA signatures, aka the Return Of the Hidden Number Problem or ROHNP. To discover an ECDSA key, the attacker needs access to either the local machine or a different virtual machine on the same physical host.
