    19  // RSA is able to encrypt only a very limited amount of data. In order
    20  // to encrypt reasonable amounts of data a hybrid scheme is commonly
    21  // used: RSA is used to encrypt a key for a symmetric primitive like
    22  // AES-GCM.
    23  //
    24  // Before encrypting, data is “padded” by embedding it in a known
    25  // structure. This is done for a number of reasons, but the most
    26  // obvious is to ensure that the value is large enough that the
    27  // exponentiation is larger than the modulus. (Otherwise it could be
    28  // decrypted with a square-root.)
    29  //
    30  // In these designs, when using PKCS #1 v1.5, it's vitally important to
    31  // avoid disclosing whether the received RSA message was well-formed
    32  // (that is, whether the result of decrypting is a correctly padded
    33  // message) because this leaks secret information.
    34  // DecryptPKCS1v15SessionKey is designed for this situation and copies
    35  // the decrypted, symmetric key (if well-formed) in constant-time over
    36  // a buffer that contains a random key. Thus, if the RSA result isn't
