* Zeroize several intermediate variables used to calculate the expected
|
||||
value when verifying a MAC or AEAD tag. This hardens the library in
|
||||
case the value leaks through a memory disclosure vulnerability. For
|
||||
example, a memory disclosure vulnerability could have allowed a
|
||||
man-in-the-middle to inject fake ciphertext into a DTLS connection.
