See https://dev.gnupg.org/T4541 where I commented:

 Andreas, I wonder on which grounds you assigned a CVE for this claimed
 side-channel attack. The mentioned paper is about an old RSA
 side-channel and not on AES.  I would like to see more facts than the
 reference to a guy who "knows PPC pretty well".


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner
