An issue was discovered in Bouncy Castle Java TLS API and JSSE Provider before 1.78. Timing-based leakage may occur in RSA based handshakes because of exception processing.. A flaw was found in the Bouncy Castle Java cryptography APIs. Affected versions of the org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk18on package are vulnerable to Observable Timing Discrepancy via the PKCS#1 1.5 and OAEP decryption process (a.k.a. Marvin Attack). An attacker can recover cipher-texts via a side-channel attack by exploiting the Marvin security flaw. The PKCS#1 1.5 attack vector leaks data via javax.crypto.Cipher exceptions and the OAEP interface vector leaks via the bit size of the decrypted data.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
