+Subject: [PATCH] SAE: Mask timing of MODP groups 22, 23, 24
+
+These groups have significant probability of coming up with pwd-value
+that is equal or greater than the prime and as such, need for going
+through the PWE derivation loop multiple times. This can result in
+sufficient timing different to allow an external observer to determine
+how many rounds are needed and that can leak information about the used
+password.
+
+Force at least 40 loop rounds for these MODP groups similarly to the ECC
+group design to mask timing. This behavior is not described in IEEE Std
+802.11-2016 for SAE, but it does not result in different values (i.e.,
+only different timing), so such implementation specific countermeasures
+can be done without breaking interoperability with other implementation.
+
+Note: These MODP groups 22, 23, and 24 are not considered sufficiently
+strong to be used with SAE (or more or less anything else). As such,
+they should never be enabled in runtime configuration for any production
+use cases. These changes to introduce additional protection to mask
+timing is only for completeness of implementation and not an indication
+that these groups should be used.
+
+This is related to CVE-2019-9494.
