E' stata annunciata ieri la scoperta di una vulnerabilità
(CVE-2017-15361) nella generazione di chiavi RSA da parte di una
libreria software di Infineon Technologies AG.

"The algorithmic vulnerability is characterized by a specific structure
of the generated RSA primes, which makes factorization of commonly used
key lengths including 1024 and 2048 bits practically possible. Only the
knowledge of a public key is necessary and no physical access to the
vulnerable device is required. The vulnerability does NOT depend on a
weak or a faulty random number generator - all RSA keys generated by a
vulnerable chip are impacted. The attack was practically verified for
several randomly selected 1024-bit RSA keys and for several selected
2048-bit keys."

I chip Infineon sono molto comuni, non solo su Smartcards e token
crittografici, ma anche su TPM.
