hw: Fast forward store predictor

A flaw was found in the CPU microarchitecture where a local attacker is able to abuse a timing issue which may allow them to infer internal architectural state from previous executions on the CPU...

kernel: Speculation on pointer arithmetic against bpf_context pointer

A flaw was found in the Linux kernels eBPF verification code. By default accessing the eBPF verifier is only accessible to privileged users with CAPSYSADMIN. A local user with the ability to insert eBPF instructions can use the eBPF verifier to abuse a spectre like flaw where they can infer all...

CVE-2021-32643

Http4s is a Scala interface for HTTP services. StaticFile.fromUrl can leak the presence of a directory on a server when the URL scheme is not file://, and the URL points to a fetchable resource under its scheme and authority. The function returns FNone, indicating no resource, if url.getFile is a...

Determining Key Shape from Sound

Its not yet very accurate or practical, but under ideal conditions it is possible to figure out the shape of a house key by listening to it being used. Listen to Your Key: Towards Acoustics-based Physical Key Inference Abstract: Physical locks are one of the most prevalent mechanisms for securing...

CVE-2018-12130

A flaw was found in the implementation of the "fill buffer", a mechanism used by modern CPUs when a cache-miss is made on L1 CPU cache. If an attacker can generate a load operation that would create a page fault, the execution will continue speculatively with incorrect data from the fill buffer...

Experts Find a Way to Learn What You're Typing During Video Calls

A new attack framework aims to infer keystrokes typed by a target user at the opposite end of a video conference call by simply leveraging the video feed to correlate observable body movements to the text being typed. The research was undertaken by Mohd Sabra, and Murtuza Jadliwala from the...

The remote CentOS Linux 8 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CESA-2019:0966 advisory. - Mozilla: Proxy Auto-Configuration file can define localhost access to be proxied CVE-2018-18506 - Mozilla: Memory safety bugs fixed in Firefox 66 and...

Eavesdropping on Phone Taps from Voice Assistants

The microphones on voice assistants are very sensitive, and can snoop on all sorts of data: In Hey Alexa what did I just type? we show that when sitting up to half a meter away, a voice assistant can still hear the taps you make on your phone, even in presence of noise. Modern voice assistants ha...

CVE-2020-8694

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Intel's Running Average Power Limit RAPL implementation. A local attacker could infer secrets by measuring power usage and also infer private data by observing the power usage of calculations performed on the data. Mitigation A temporary...

Zoom Snooping: How Body Language Can Spill Your Password

You’ve heard of Zoom Bombing, but have you heard of Zoom Snooping? Researchers contend they can extract keystroke data from participants in a video call simply by tracking shoulder movements. A recently published study warns malicious actors might use the technique to decipher personal passwords...

Determining What Video Conference Participants Are Typing from Watching Shoulder Movements

Accuracy isnt great, but that it can be done at all is impressive. Murtuza Jadiwala, a computer science professor heading the research project, said his team was able to identify the contents of texts by examining body movement of the participants. Specifically, they focused on the movement of...

CVE-2020-15666

When trying to load a non-video in an audio/video context the exact status code 200, 302, 404, 500, 412, 403, etc. was disclosed via the MediaError Message. This level of information leakage is inconsistent with the standardized onerror/onsuccess disclosure and can lead to inferring login status ...

CVE-2020-15214

In TensorFlow Lite before versions 2.2.1 and 2.3.1, models using segment sum can trigger a write out bounds / segmentation fault if the segment ids are not sorted. Code assumes that the segment ids are in increasing order, using the last element of the tensor holding them to determine the...
