Yubico YubiKey 5 Series devices with firmware before 5.7.0 and YubiHSM 2 devices with firmware before 2.4.0 allow an ECDSA secret-key extraction attack (that requires physical access and expensive equipment) in which an electromagnetic side channel is present because of a non-constant-time modular inversion for the Extended Euclidean Algorithm, aka the EUCLEAK issue. Other uses of an Infineon cryptographic library may also be affected.

remediations

Vendor fix, mitigation, or workaround guidance, as published by each source.

A vendor fix is available.

  • FixedFirmware <4.52 installed on CODESYS Key series 3codesys_psirt

    Update the CODESYS Key firmware to version 4.52. Updating the firmware also protects the future usage of additional CODESYS Key features by the CODESYS software and general usage by other software. The update can be installed, for example, via the CodeMeter Control Center.

  • FixedFirmware 4.5.2phoenix_contact_psirt

    Phoenix Contact strongly recommends upgrading affected ESL STICK USB A s to firmware version 4.5.2 which fixes this vulnerability.

  • MitigationFirmware <4.52 installed on CODESYS Key series 3codesys_psirt

    Regardless of the vulnerability described here, CODESYS GmbH recommends that physical access to the CODESYS Key should only be granted to authorized persons. Especially in the case of productive control systems, removal of the CODESYS Key can affect the controlled machine or process. This generally recommended restriction of access also reduces the attack surface for this vulnerability, as its exploitation requires physical access.

  • Advisory2025-01_VDE-2025-001CODESYS Key physical side-channel vulnerability2025-01-21csaf · codesys_psirtDE

    The CODESYS Key USB dongle, which is based on WIBU CodeMeter technology, is affected by a physical side-channel vulnerability.

  • VDE-2025-005Phoenix Contact: Security Advisory for ESL Stick USB-A2025-01-14csaf · phoenix_contact_psirtDE

    A vulnerability has been found in a cryptographic library of Infineon Technologies that is part of the firmware of the CmDongles. The exploitation of this vulnerability has been classified as complex: potential attackers need physical access and require special equipment to exploit the vulnerability. In general, this vulnerability affects only ECC keys used to calculate signatures with the ECDSA algorithm.
