Re:SSH gets protection against side-channel attacks by rurban on Saturday June 22, 2019 @08:15AM (#20249195)
No. The CPU cache can easily be read out with sidechannel attacks via hyperthreading. It's the similar problem as unencrypted keys at the absolute location, which doesn't get cleared with explicit_bzero, which e.g. libsodium refused to fix. Hopefully crypto maintainers will get to their senses eventually.
