CPU attacks like Spectre and Meltdown and their many variants have used the CPU cache as a side-channel to infer sensitive data. Researchers from the VUSec group at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam ...

A team of security researchers has disclosed new side-channel vulnerabilities in modern Apple processors that could steal sensitive information from web browsers.

New Intel CPU side-channel attack Indirector can leak sensitive data. News Analysis. Jul 5, 2024 5 mins. Advanced Persistent Threats Threat and Vulnerability Management Vulnerabilities.

At Black Hat USA, security researcher Ben Gras from VU University details a new side-channel attack method against CPU caches.

Academics from the University of California, Riverside (UCR) have published details last week about a new Spectre-class attack that they call SpectreRSB.

Once instructions are underway, the CPU does not always check whether or not memory accesses from cache are accessing privileged memory. It is this window of time that can be exploited.

Dubbed FLOP (breaking the Apple M3 CPU via False Load Output Predictions) and SLAP (data Speculation attacks via Load Address Prediction on Apple Silicon), the two attacks may be executed on Macs ...
