CVE-2017-15537

The x86/fpu Floating Point Unit subsystem in the Linux kernel before 4.13.5, when a processor supports the xsave feature but not the xsaves feature, does not correctly handle attempts to set reserved bits in the xstate header via the ptrace or rtsigreturn system call, allowing local users to read...

Side Channel Attack On Modular Exponentiation

OpenSSL is vulnerable to side channel attacks. The vulnerability exploits cache-bank conflicts on the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture, exposing RSA keys. However, an attacker can only exploit this only if he has control of code in a thread running on the same hyper-threaded core as the victi...
