Cache Timing Attack on RSA Sliding Window Algorithm

Jianjun Zeng · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2011

Based on researching RSA signature algorithm and theory of cache timing attack,analyzing the implementation of RSA in OpenSSL0.9.8a,a caching timing attack method is given against the process of accessing initial table in the sliding windows algorithm.Simulation result demonstrates the cache timing attack can get more than 700 bit secret key from 1 024 bit private key and needs less samples compare to the timing attack based on statistic analysis.
