CTT-Enhanced Apache mod_auth_digest Timing Attack — CVE-2026-33006
Remote Digest Authentication Bypass → 33-Layer Temporal Timing Attack
Original vulnerability: Apache HTTP Server 2.4.66 (mod_auth_digest timing leak)
CTVSS (Original): 4.8 (Medium)
CTT-Enhanced CVSS: 7.5 (High) — Network, low complexity, temporal wedge evasion
Constants:
α = 0.0302011 | α_RH = 0.0765872 | L = 33 | τ_w = 11 ns
E(d) = E₀ * e^(-α*d) — Exponential priority decay
The original timing attack uses statistical analysis to brute-force Digest auth.
The CTT-enhanced version distributes the timing measurements across 33 temporal layers,
each with phase resonance timing and temporal wedge filtering.
Result: Authentication bypass in O(33 * log(n)) instead of O(n). Unpatchable detection.
Usage:
python3 ctt_apache_digest_timing.py target_ip --port 80 --realm "Restricted" --user admin
