Mbed TLS 3.5.2

Description

This release of Mbed TLS provides fixes for security issues.

Security Advisories

For full details, please see the following link:

• Timing side channel in private key RSA operations.
• Buffer overflow in mbedtls_x509_set_extension.

Release Notes

Security

• Fix a timing side channel in private key RSA operations. This side channel
  could be sufficient for an attacker to recover the plaintext. A local
  attacker or a remote attacker who is close to the victim on the network
  might have precise enough timing measurements to exploit this. It requires
  the attacker to send a large number of messages for decryption. For
  details, see "Everlasting ROBOT: the Marvin Attack", Hubert Kario. Reported
  by Hubert Kario, Red Hat.
• Fix a failure to validate input when writing x509 extensions lengths which
  could result in an integer overflow, causing a zero-length buffer to be
  allocated to hold the extension. The extension would then be copied into
  the buffer, causing a heap buffer overflow.

Who should update

We recommend all users should update to take advantage of the bug fixes contained in this release at an appropriate point in their development lifecycle.
