You have to dig through to the original report article to find out what the flaw is.
"The flaw resides in the Infineon-developed RSA Library version v1.02.013, specifically within an algorithm it implements for RSA primes generation."
"The flaw affects only keys generated with the RSA algorithm, and then only when they were generated on a smartcard or other embedded device that uses the Infineon library."
"All told, the researchers estimate that Infineon's faulty library may have generated tens of millions of RSA keys in the five or so years it has been commercially available."
