Summary
A timing-based side-channel flaw exists in the perl-Crypt-OpenSSL-RSA package, which could be sufficient to recover plaintext across a network in a Bleichenbacher-style attack. To achieve successful decryption, an attacker would have to be able to send a large number of trial messages.
The vulnerability affects the legacy PKCS#1v1.5 RSA encryption padding mode. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).

Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE.
Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: perl-crypt-openssl-rsa.
