The fix avoids secret-dependent control flow during ECDH computations when libsecp256k1 is compiled with GCC 13.1. + #### Fixed - Fixed an old bug that permitted compilers to potentially output bad assembly code on x86_64. In theory, it could lead to a crash or a read of unrelated memory, but this has never been observed on any compilers so far.
