CWE ID 327

Summary

CVE-2023-51392 is a vulnerability affecting Ember ZNet versions 7.2.0 to 7.4.0. The issue lies in the use of software AES-CCM encryption instead of hardware cryptographic accelerators, increasing the risk of electromagnetic and differential power analysis sidechannel attacks. These types of attacks exploit the differences in power consumption during encryption processes to obtain sensitive information, making the vulnerability a potential security concern for affected systems. The use of software encryption instead of hardware accelerators leaves these devices more susceptible to such attacks, and it is recommended that users upgrade to a secure and patched version of Ember ZNet software to mitigate the risk.
