This algorithm could leak information to external observers in form of timing differences or memory access patterns (cache use). While the previous implementation had protection against the most visible timing differences (looping 40 rounds and masking the legendre operation), it did not protect against memory access patterns between the two possible code paths in the masking operations. That might be sufficient to allow an unprivileged process running on the same device to be able to determine which path is being executed through a cache attack and based on that, determine information about the used password. Convert the PWE finding loop to use constant time functions and identical memory access path without different branches for the QR/QNR cases to minimize possible side-channel information similarly to the changes done for SAE authentication.

This package may include either wpa_supplicant, hostapd, or both. See README file respective subdirectories (wpa_supplicant/README or hostapd/README) for more details. Source code files were moved around in v0.6.x releases and compared to earlier releases, the programs are now built by first going to a subdirectory (wpa_supplicant or hostapd) and creating build configuration (.config) and running 'make' there (for Linux/BSD/cygwin builds).
