CVE-2018-12434

LibreSSL before 2.6.5 and 2.7.x before 2.7.4 allows a memory-cache side-channel attack on DSA and ECDSA signatures, aka the Return Of the Hidden Number Problem or ROHNP. To discover a key, the attacker needs access to either the local machine or a different virtual machine on the same physical host.
