It seems nettle is also vulnerable to this flaw. Which was confirmed by upstream via: https://lists.lysator.liu.se/pipermail/nettle-bugs/2016/003093.html The above link also contains a proposed patch, will be committed soon. I would like to request a CVE id for the flaw in nettle. Note: libgcrypt-1.6.3. release notes talk about 2 cves being fixed, but they dont mention this paper at all. (I am going to talk to the researchers to figure this out) -- Huzaifa Sidhpurwala / Red Hat Product Security Team
