+ <p>BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on MIPS (Moderate)</p>
+ <p>There is a carry propagation bug in the MIPS32 and MIPS64 squaring
+ procedure. Many EC algorithms are affected, including some of the
+ TLS 1.3 default curves. Impact was not analyzed in detail, because the
+ pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely and include reusing
+ private keys. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a
+ result of this defect would be very difficult to perform and are not
+ believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just feasible
+ (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to deduce
+ information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
+ of resources required for such an attack would be significant.
+ However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server would have
+ to share the DH private key among multiple clients, which is no longer
+ an option since CVE-2016-0701.</p>
