* cipher/random.c (randomize_mpi): New. * g10/gpgv.c (randomize_mpi): New stub. * cipher/rsa.c (USE_BLINDING): Define macro. (secret): Implement blinding. -- GPG 1.x has never used any protection against timing attacks on the RSA secret operation. The rationale for this has been that there was no way to mount a remote timing attack on GnuPG. With the turning up of Acoustic Cryptanalysis (http://cs.tau.ac.il/~tromer/acoustic) this assumption no longer holds true and thus we need to do do something about it. Blinding seems to be a suitable mitigation to the threat of key extraction. It does not help against distinguishing used keys, though. Note that GPG 2.x uses Libgcrypt which does blinding by default. The performance penalty is negligible: Modifying the core pubkey_sign or pubkey_decrypt function to run 100 times in a loop, the entire execution times for signing or decrypting a small message using a 4K RSA key on a Thinkpad X220 are Without blinding: 5.2s (8.9s) With blinding: 5.6s (9.3s) The numbers in parentheses give the values without the recently implemented k-ary exponentiation code. Thus for the next release the user will actually experience faster signing and decryption. A drawback of blinding is that we need random numbers even for decryption (albeit at low quality).
