UnverifiedA security researcher successfully factored the RSA key used by a certificate authority (CA) from the 1990s.63% similarUnverifiedThe ROCA vulnerability disclosed in 2017 (CVE-2017-15361) stemmed from Infineon's RSA key generation implementation using a non-standard prime generation method, allowing attackers to factor 1024-bit RSA keys within hours and affecting hundreds of millions of smart cards and TPM chips worldwide.60% similarUnverified2006年被发现的OpenSSL整数溢出漏洞在代码库中潜伏多年，直到安全研究人员专项审计才曝光59% similarUnverifiedRSA encryption relies on the difficulty of large integer factorization, elliptic curve cryptography relies on the discrete logarithm problem, and cryptographic security is built on the assumption that certain problems are computationally hard to solve.57% similarUnverifiedThe RSA algorithm was proposed by Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman in 1977 and was the first asymmetric encryption scheme to be widely adopted in practice.57% similar
