Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The ctutils crate, versions before 0.4.4, could generate branch instructions in its mask generation functions for unsigned integers on common platforms, and its u128 comparisons could generate branches on 32-bit targets. An attacker who can observe timing or other side channels while secret values are processed may be able to recover those secrets. Upgrade ctutils to 0.4.4 or later.
