What is CVE-2010-0928?
CVE-2010-0928 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Openssl Openssl, published on 5 Mar 2010. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
OpenSSL 0.9.8i on the Gaisler Research LEON3 SoC on the Xilinx Virtex-II Pro FPGA uses a Fixed Width Exponentiation (FWE) algorithm for certain signature calculations, and does not verify the signature before providing it to a caller, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to determine the private key via a modified supply voltage for the microprocessor, related to a "fault-based attack."
Weakness: CWE-310
