Constant-time support lands in LLVM: Protecting cryptographic code at the compiler level
Tags: access, apple, attack, crypto, cryptography, data, exploit, government, group, infrastructure, open-source, rust, vulnerabilityTrail of Bits has developed constant-time coding support for LLVM 21, providing developers with compiler-level guarantees that their cryptographic implementations remain secure against branching-related timing attacks. This work introduces the __builtin_ct_select family of intrinsics and supporting infrastructure that prevents the Clang compiler, and potentially other compilers built with LLVM, from inadvertently breaking carefully crafted constant-time…
