 This attack can also be applied against the RSA signature scheme.In 2003, Boneh and Brumley demonstrated a more practical attack capable of recovering RSA factorizations over a network connection (e.g., from a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)-enabled webserver) This attack takes advantage of information leaked by the Chinese remainder theorem optimization used by many RSA implementations.One way to thwart these attacks is to ensure that the decryption operation takes a constant amount of time for every ciphertext.
