Retbleed - arbitrary speculative code execution with return instructions

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Researchers at ETH Zurich have discovered Retbleed, allowing for arbitrary speculative execution in a victim context. For more details, see: https://comsec.ethz.ch/retbleed ETH Zurich have allocated CVE-2022-29900 for AMD and CVE-2022-29901 for Intel. Despite the similar...

CVE-2022-29901

Intel microprocessor generations 6 to 8 are affected by a new Spectre variant that is able to bypass their retpoline mitigation in the kernel to leak arbitrary data. An attacker with unprivileged user access can hijack return instructions to achieve arbitrary speculative code execution under...
