Lack of data validation - Path Traversal In pyquorum
Description
pyquorum: Timing side‑channel in mul_mod
Impact
The mul_mod function implements multiplication via a binary expansion loop whose execution time depends on the Hamming weight of the second operand (the exponent). An attacker who can measure the time of secret‑sharing operations (e.g., via a remote service) could progressively recover the values of shares, ultimately leading to secret reconstruction.
