Machine-written summary

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

crypto-bigint versions before 0.7.6 have several operations meant to run in constant time that may execute secret-dependent branches, depending on compiler and target CPU. These include subtraction, zero counting, division, Montgomery multiplication, UintRef equality, and BoxedMontyForm::invert. An attacker able to observe timing or microarchitectural side channels could potentially learn information about secret intermediate values or invertibility, which could in some cases help recover cryptographic secrets. Upgrade to crypto-bigint 0.7.6 or later, which removes the affected branches.
