{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396","details":"In wolfSSL release 5.8.2 blinding support is turned on by default for Curve25519 in applicable builds. The blinding configure option is only for the base C implementation of Curve25519. It is not needed, or available with; ARM assembly builds, Intel assembly builds, and the small Curve25519 feature. While the side-channel attack on extracting a private key would be very difficult to execute in practice, enabling blinding provides an additional layer of protection for devices that may be more susceptible to physical access or side-channel observation.","modified":"2026-05-20T16:24:01.071472434Z","published":"2025-07-18T23:15:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-7396"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2025-7396"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2025-7396"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/pull/8736"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/blob/master/ChangeLog.md#wolfssl-release-582-july-17-2025"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.4.8+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libcyassl5","binary_version":"3.4.8+dfsg-1"},{"binary_name":"libwolfssl0","binary_version":"3.4.8+dfsg-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?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_name":"libwolfssl15","binary_version":"3.13.0+dfsg-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?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_name":"libwolfssl24","binary_version":"4.3.0+dfsg-2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?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_name":"libwolfssl32","binary_version":"5.2.0-2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.5.4-2","5.5.4-2.1","5.6.4-2","5.6.6-1.2","5.6.6-1.3","5.6.6-1.3build1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libwolfssl42t64","binary_version":"5.6.6-1.3build1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:25.10","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?arch=source&distro=questing"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.7.2-0.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libwolfssl42t64","binary_version":"5.7.2-0.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wolfssl","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/wolfssl?arch=source&distro=resolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.7.2-0.1","5.8.2-1.2","5.8.4-1","5.9.1-0.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libwolfssl44","binary_version":"5.9.1-0.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2025/UBUNTU-CVE-2025-7396.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
