Last modified
CVE-2015-8618 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Int.Exp Montgomery code in the math/big library in Go 1.5.x before 1.5.3 mishandles carry propagation and produces incorrect output, which makes it easier for attackers to obtain private RSA keys via unspecified vectors.. EPSS estimates a 2.63% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
