SGAxe, [35] an SGX vulnerability published in 2020, extends a speculative execution attack on cache, [36] leaking content of the enclave. This allows an attacker to access private CPU keys used for remote attestation. [37] In other words, a threat actor can bypass Intel's countermeasures to breach SGX enclaves' confidentiality.
In July 2023 a critical vulnerability in the Zen 2 AMD microarchitecture called Zenbleed was made public. [59] AMD released a microcode update to fix it. [60] In August 2023 a vulnerability in AMD's Zen 1, Zen 2, Zen 3, and Zen 4 microarchitectures called Inception [61] [62] was revealed and assigned CVE-2023-20569. According to AMD it is not ...
In late April 2021, a related vulnerability was discovered that breaks through the security systems designed to mitigate Spectre through use of the micro-op cache. The vulnerability is known to affect Skylake and later processors from Intel and Zen-based processors from AMD. [54]
Speculative Store Bypass (SSB) (CVE-2018-3639) is the name given to a hardware security vulnerability and its exploitation that takes advantage of speculative execution in a similar way to the Meltdown and Spectre security vulnerabilities. [1] It affects the ARM, AMD and Intel families of processors.
SWAPGS, also known as Spectre variant 1, is a computer security vulnerability that utilizes the branch prediction used in modern microprocessors. [1] [2] [3] Most processors use a form of speculative execution, this feature allows the processors to make educated guesses about the instructions that will most likely need to be executed in the near future.
Two common varieties are DNS cache poisoning [2] and ARP cache poisoning. Web cache poisoning involves the poisoning of web caches [3] (which has led to security issues in programming languages, including all Python versions at the time in 2021, and expedited security updates [4]). Attacks on other, more specific, caches also exist. [5] [6] [7]
A browser's cache stores temporary website files which allows the site to load faster in future sessions. This data will be recreated every time you visit the webpage, though at times it can become corrupted. Clearing the cache deletes these files and fixes problems like outdated pages, websites freezing, and pages not loading or being ...
Cloudbleed was a Cloudflare buffer overflow disclosed by Project Zero on February 17, 2017. Cloudflare's code disclosed the contents of memory that contained the private information of other customers, such as HTTP cookies, authentication tokens, HTTP POST bodies, and other sensitive data. [1]
