Explore the critical security vulnerabilities in zero-knowledge protocols through this 16-minute conference talk presented by Shibam Mukherjee at Real World Crypto (RWC) 2025. As the fourth presentation in the Side-Channels session chaired by Helena Handschuh, this talk examines how cache timing leakages can compromise the security guarantees of zero-knowledge systems. Discover potential attack vectors, implementation vulnerabilities, and defensive strategies for protecting cryptographic protocols against side-channel attacks. For researchers, cryptographers, and security professionals interested in the intersection of theoretical cryptography and practical implementation challenges, this presentation offers valuable insights into maintaining security in real-world zero-knowledge applications. Additional information, including the complete abstract and contributing authors, can be found on the official RWC 2025 program website.
