      Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
      Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
      Dave Tian (Purdue University).
+   * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
+     timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
+     learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
+     recover the private key.
 
 Changes
    * Add unit tests for AES-GCM when called through mbedtls_cipher_auth_xxx()
