Last modified

CVE-2026-3337 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.2/10 on the CVSS scale. Observable timing discrepancy in AES-CCM decryption in AWS-LC allows an unauthenticated user to potentially determine authentication tag validity via timing analysis. The impacted implementations are through the EVP CIPHER API: EVP_aes_128_ccm, EVP_aes_192_ccm, and EVP_aes_256_ccm. Customers of AWS services do not need to take action. Applications using AWS-LC should upgrade to AWS-LC version 1.69.0.. EPSS estimates a 1.08% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
