CVE-2026-3337 PUBLISHED

Timing Side-Channel in AES-CCM Tag Verification in AWS-LC

Assigner: AMZN
Reserved: 27.02.2026 Published: 02.03.2026 Updated: 02.03.2026

Observable timing discrepancy in AES-CCM decryption in AWS-LC allows an unauthenticated user to potentially determine authentication tag validity via timing analysis.

The impacted implementations are through the EVP CIPHER API: EVP_aes_128_ccm, EVP_aes_192_ccm, and EVP_aes_256_ccm.

Customers of AWS services do not need to take action. Applications using AWS-LC should upgrade to AWS-LC version 1.69.0.
