CVE-2026-44368: pyquorum: Timing side‑channel in mul_mod

May 6, 2026 (updated May 14, 2026)

The mul_mod function implements multiplication via a binary expansion loop whose execution time depends on the Hamming weight of the second operand (the exponent). An attacker who can measure the time of secret‑sharing operations (e.g., via a remote service) could progressively recover the values of shares, ultimately leading to secret reconstruction.
