Reusing a Nonce, Key Pair in Encryption Affecting wolfssl/wolfssl package, versions [,5.91)
Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version.

Upgrade wolfssl/wolfssl to version 5.91 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Reusing a Nonce, Key Pair in Encryption in the wc_AriaEncrypt process when ARIA-GCM cipher suites are used in TLS 1.2 or DTLS 1.2 sessions with the MagicCrypto SDK, due to the reuse of an identical 12-byte GCM nonce for every application-data record. An attacker can compromise the confidentiality and integrity of encrypted communications by exploiting predictable nonce reuse to perform cryptographic attacks. This is only exploitable if the build is configured with --enable-aria and the proprietary MagicCrypto SDK (a non-default, opt-in configuration required for Korean regulatory deployments).
