# Differential Fault Analysis

## Overview of the Vulnerability

Cryptography is used to ensure secure storage and transmission of data. However, there are a number of best practices that must be followed to ensure the cryptography in use remains secure and does not result in the exposure of sensitive data. The application is vulnerable to a differential fault analysis attack as there are changes to the system's response to specially crafted fault conditions during specific steps of cryptographic operations.

## Business Impact

This vulnerability can lead to reputational damage of the company through the impact to customers’ trust, and the ability of an attacker to view data. The severity of the impact to the business is dependent on the sensitivity of the accessible data being transmitted by the application.

## Steps to Reproduce

1. Enable a HTTP interception proxy, such as Burp Suite or OWASP ZAP
1. Setup {{software}} to intercept and log requests
1. Use a browser to navigate to: {{URL}}
1. {{action}} to view unencrypted requests

## Proof of Concept (PoC)

## Business Impact

This vulnerability can lead to reputational damage of the company through the impact to customers’ trust, and the ability of an attacker to view data. The severity of the impact to the business is dependent on the sensitivity of the accessible data being transmitted by the application.

# Padding Oracle Attack

## Overview of the Vulnerability

A cryptographic weakness was identified which can allow an attacker to use a padding oracle attack to derive the encryption key. This is due to the application revealing information during the decryption process about the validity of the padding data. This can allow an attacker to break the confidentiality of requests sent to and from the endpoint.

## Business Impact

This vulnerability can lead to reputational damage of the company through the impact to customers’ trust, and the ability of an attacker to view data. The severity of the impact to the business is dependent on the sensitivity of the accessible data being transmitted by the application.

Implement robust entropy for the cryptographic algorithms and ensure that the algorithms, protocols, and keys in place are kept up to date. Best practices includes separating the power consumption of a system from the state of cryptographic operations. This ensures that the outcomes of a cryptographic step (or multiple steps) are not observable through the power consumption of the system.

## Overview of the Vulnerability

Cryptography is used to ensure secure storage and transmission of data. However, there are a number of best practices that must be followed to ensure the cryptography in use remains secure and does not result in the exposure of sensitive data.

This allows an attacker to use a timing attack to derive the encryption key.

## Business Impact

This vulnerability can lead to reputational damage of the company through the impact to customers’ trust, and the ability of an attacker to view data. The severity of the impact to the business is dependent on the sensitivity of the accessible data being transmitted by the application.
