constant-time-testing

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps identify and mitigate timing side-channel vulnerabilities in cryptographic code, which can be exploited to leak sensitive information like private keys.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Detect Timing Leaks: Identifies code paths or operations whose execution time depends on secret data.
• Analyze Crypto Implementations: Specifically designed for auditing cryptographic primitives and protocols.
• Use Case: When auditing a new encryption library, use this Skill to automatically run statistical tests and dynamic analysis to ensure that operations involving secret keys do not leak information through timing variations.

Quick Start

Use the constant-time-testing skill to analyze the provided C code for potential timing vulnerabilities.
