This dangerous OpenSSL vulnerability can easily be triggered | CVE-2022-2274 Explained

We discuss the CVE-2022-2274 OpenSSL Vulnerability.

The OpenSSL 3.0.4 release introduced a serious bug in the RSA
implementation for X86_64 CPUs supporting the AVX512IFMA instructions.
This issue makes the RSA implementation with 2048 bit private keys
incorrect on such machines and memory corruption will happen during
the computation. As a consequence of the memory corruption an attacker
may be able to trigger a remote code execution on the machine performing
the computation.
