QuantumScan
openssl/openssl
The OpenSSL repository contains one instance of DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) usage in test helper code. DSA is vulnerable to quantum attacks via Shor's algorithm, which can break discrete logarithm-based cryptography. However, this finding is limited to test infrastructure rather than production cryptographic primitives, reducing immediate operational risk.
| File | Algorithm | Severity | |
|---|---|---|---|
| test/helpers/predefined_dsaparams.h:12 | DSA | high |
