CVE-2023-33850 describes a timing-based side-channel vulnerability in IBM GSKit-Crypto's RSA Decryption implementation, potentially allowing a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 7.5) affects products from vendors like IBM, HP, Linux, and Microsoft, and can be exploited with low attack complexity by sending an excessive number of trial decryption messages. Despite its severity, there is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage.
