CVE-2013-1620

MEDIUM 4.3EPSS 3.72%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.72%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The TLS implementation in Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) does not properly consider timing side-channel attacks on a noncompliant MAC check operation during the processing of malformed CBC padding, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plaintext-recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, a related issue to CVE-2013-0169.
