| Summary | Observable Timing Discrepancy in pypqc
`kyber512`, `kyber768`, and `kyber1024` on Mac OS \(or when compiled with clang\) only: An attacker able to submit many decapsulation requests against a single private key, and to gain timing information about the decapsulation, could recover the private key. Proof-of-concept exploit exists for a local attacker.

Observable Timing Discrepancy |
| description |
Two separate operations in a product require different amounts of time to complete, in a way that is observable to an actor and reveals security-relevant information about the state of the product, such as whether a particular operation was successful or not. |
