{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2023-6935","details":"wolfSSL SP Math All RSA implementation is vulnerable to the Marvin Attack, new variation of a timing Bleichenbacher style attack, when built with the following options to configure: --enable-all CFLAGS=\"-DWOLFSSL_STATIC_RSA\" The define “WOLFSSL_STATIC_RSA” enables static RSA cipher suites, which is not recommended, and has been disabled by default since wolfSSL 3.6.6. Therefore the default build since 3.6.6, even with \"--enable-all\", is not vulnerable to the Marvin Attack. The vulnerability is specific to static RSA cipher suites, and expected to be padding-independent. The vulnerability allows an attacker to decrypt ciphertexts and forge signatures after probing with a large number of test observations. However the server’s private key is not exposed.","modified":"2026-04-22T14:35:39.393552Z","published":"2024-02-09T23:15:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2023-6935"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2023-6935"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/blob/v5.6.6-stable/ChangeLog.md#vulnerabilities"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-6935"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl@3.4.8+dfsg-1?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.4.8+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"3.4.8+dfsg-1","binary_name":"libcyassl5"},{"binary_version":"3.4.8+dfsg-1","binary_name":"libwolfssl0"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-6935.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl@3.13.0+dfsg-1?arch=source&distro=bionic"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.10.2+dfsg-2","3.12.0+dfsg-1","3.12.2+dfsg-1","3.13.0+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"3.13.0+dfsg-1","binary_name":"libwolfssl15"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-6935.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl@4.3.0+dfsg-2?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.1.0+dfsg-2","4.2.0+dfsg-1","4.2.0+dfsg-2","4.2.0+dfsg-3","4.3.0+dfsg-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"4.3.0+dfsg-2","binary_name":"libwolfssl24"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-6935.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl@5.2.0-2?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.6.0-3","5.0.0-1","5.1.1-1","5.2.0-1","5.2.0-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"5.2.0-2","binary_name":"libwolfssl32"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-6935.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
