Why is constant-time programming important?

If code execution time depends on secret values, attackers can use high-precision timers to recover sensitive data like encryption keys or passwords.

Does it support CI/CD integration?

Yes, it can produce JSON output, allowing it to be integrated into automated security pipelines to catch timing leaks before deployment.

What languages does this skill support?

It supports 14 major languages including C, C++, Go, Rust, Swift, Java, Kotlin, C#, PHP, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Ruby.

Can it distinguish between public and secret data automatically?

No, it flags all potentially dangerous operations. Developers must manually verify if the flagged operation's input depends on secret data like private keys.

How does it detect vulnerabilities?

The skill performs static analysis on assembly or bytecode to find instructions (like division or conditional jumps) whose execution time varies based on operand values.

Detects timing side-channel vulnerabilities and secret-dependent operations in cryptographic code across 14+ programming languages.

This skill empowers developers to identify and mitigate timing side-channel attacks by analyzing assembly and bytecode for instructions that leak sensitive data. It automatically flags dangerous operations like secret-dependent branches, divisions, and early-exit comparisons in popular languages including C, Rust, Go, and Java. By providing architectural-specific analysis and optimization-level checks, it helps ensure that cryptographic implementations remain constant-time, protecting against real-world threats like KyberSlash and RSA timing attacks. It serves as a critical auditing layer for any code handling private keys, encryption, or authentication tokens.
