Research direction
Search the decrypt_session_key references in algorithms/pkcs1v15.rs, algorithms/oaep.rs, oaep.rs, and pkcs1v15.rs. Read the surrounding documentation and identify the intended existing guidance or API; done means the references no longer point to a nonexistent item and the security explanation remains clear.

Description
/// Decrypts a plaintext using RSA and the padding scheme from PKCS#1 v1.5.
///
/// If an `rng` is passed, it uses RSA blinding to avoid timing side-channel attacks.
///
/// Note that whether this function returns an error or not discloses secret
/// information. If an attacker can cause this function to run repeatedly and
/// learn whether each instance returned an error then they can decrypt and
/// forge signatures as if they had the private key. See
/// `decrypt_session_key` for a way of solving this problem.
