Do you think anyone would let a hacker manipulate the voltage of his PC while doing online banking operations? I mean this guy would be sitting somewhere under the table playing with the wires?
Seriously, if we assume physical access to the machine, it would be easier and faster to freeze the memory using liquid nitrogen and recover the keys from the memory directly.

I agree with you. This is not really a break. It is hardware manipulation to achieve the goal.

Inteligent, but in practice this not a weakness of the crypto. However, it will be prevented.

Tom St Denis, author of "Cryptography for Developers" and the widely used "TomLib" open source crypto libraries, offered a nice summary of this embroglio on the sci.crypt forum. Said he:

"It's misleading to think this has anything to do with key size. Of course they wouldn't make the press if they 'merely' broke a 512-bit key with their technique which is largely akin to punching a guy in the gut and stealing their wallet.

"There have been known various blinding techniques for a while…"

Interesting work, but overhyped in presentation. There may be some remedial issues for OpenSSL implementation code, but voltage manipulation is not an accessible variable for sysops at most OpenSSL installations.

This work does not, fortunately, reveal any weakness in RSA public Key crypto. It would be a disservice to readers to suggest it does.
