GHSA-hrjv-pf36-jpmr: oqs's Post-Quantum Key Encapsulation Mechanism SIKE broken

August 18, 2022

Wouter Castryck and Thomas Decru presented an efficient key recovery attack on the SIDH protocol. As a result, the secret key of SIKEp751 can be recovered in a matter of hours. The SIKE and SIDH schemes will be removed from oqs 0.7.2.
