UnknownEPSS 2.14%
Last modified
CVE-2013-5915 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The RSA-CRT implementation in PolarSSL before 1.2.9 does not properly perform Montgomery multiplication, which might allow remote attackers to conduct a timing side-channel attack and retrieve RSA private keys.. EPSS estimates a 2.14% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
