NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mbedtls package and not the mbedtls package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

ARM mbed TLS before 2.12.0, before 2.7.5, and before 2.1.14 allows local users to achieve partial plaintext recovery (for a CBC based ciphersuite) via a cache-based side-channel attack.
