      "value": "Crypto++ (aka Cryptopp) 8.6.0 and earlier contains a timing leakage in MakePublicKey(). There is a clear correlation between execution time and private key length, which may cause disclosure of the length information of the private key. This might allow attackers to conduct timing attacks. NOTE: this report is disputed by the vendor and multiple third parties. The execution-time differences are intentional. A user may make a choice of a longer key as a tradeoff between strength and performance. In making this choice, the amount of information leaked to an adversary is of infinitesimal value"

Se presenta una clara correlaci\u00f3n entre el tiempo de ejecuci\u00f3n y la longitud de la clave privada, que puede causar una divulgaci\u00f3n de la informaci\u00f3n de la longitud de la clave privada. Esto podr\u00eda permitir a atacantes conducir ataques de tiempo. NOTA: este informe es discutido por el vendedor y por m\u00faltiples terceros. Las diferencias de tiempo de ejecuci\u00f3n son intencionadas. Un usuario puede elegir una clave m\u00e1s larga como compensaci\u00f3n entre la fuerza y el rendimiento. Al hacer esta elecci\u00f3n, la cantidad de informaci\u00f3n filtrada a un adversario es de valor infinitesimal"
