NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream botan package and not the botan package as distributed by Debian.

Botan before 3.6.0, when certain LLVM versions are used, has compiler-induced secret-dependent control flow in lib/utils/ghash/ghash.cpp in GHASH in AES-GCM. There is a branch instead of an XOR with carry. This was observed for Clang in LLVM 15 on RISC-V.
