A flaw was found in hw. The AMD CPUs can be attacked similar to the previously known Spectre Variant 2 (CVE-2017-5715). This issue affects AMD CPUs where the OS relies on IBPB to flush the return address predictor. As a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to cross the syscall and guest/host boundaries and read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.
