Improper authorization control for web services In liboqs
Description
An observable discrepancy was found in the reference implementation of the HQC key encapsulation mechanism when it is compiled with Clang for optimization levels above -O0 onto -O1, -O2, and beyond. A proof-of-concept local attack exploits this secret-dependent information to recover the entire secret key.
