NinjaLab found the side channel when putting the Yubikey 5 through its paces. Yubico has confirmed the vulnerability and stopped using the vulnerable crypto library Infineon sells. As of Friday-72 hours after a coordinated dislosure-Infineon has yet to say a word publicly about the vulnerability.

Infineon hasn't even obtained a CVE for this vulnerability. The company says the initial email I sent seeking comment got caught in a spam filter. The PR person seemed completely unaware of the my Ars Technica post (arstechnica.com/security/202... ) when we finally connected on Friday.
