Kernel: page cache side channel attacks

A new software page cache side channel attack scenario was discovered in operating systems that implement the very common 'page cache' caching mechanism. A malicious user/process could use 'in memory' page-cache knowledge to infer access timings to shared memory and gain knowledge which can be us...

openssl: Side-channel vulnerability on SMT/Hyper-Threading architectures (PortSmash)

A microprocessor side-channel vulnerability was found on SMT e.g, Hyper-Threading architectures. An attacker running a malicious process on the same core of the processor as the victim process can extract certain secret information...

Windows Kernel Information Disclosure Vulnerability

An information disclosure vulnerability exists when certain central processing units CPU speculatively access memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could read privileged data across trust boundaries. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an...

CVE-2019-13377

The implementations of SAE and EAP-pwd in hostapd and wpasupplicant 2.x through 2.8 are vulnerable to side-channel attacks as a result of observable timing differences and cache access patterns when Brainpool curves are used. An attacker may be able to gain leaked information from a side-channel...

Medium: kernel

Issue Overview: There is a newly discovered variant side-channel attack of Spectre V1 which leverages SWAPGS instructions to bypass KPTI/KVA mitigations. This could lead to a kernel information disclosure Affected Packages: kernel Issue Correction: Run yum update kernel or yum update --advisory...

Researchers Discover New Ways to Hack WPA3 Protected WiFi Passwords

The same team of cybersecurity researchers who discovered several severe vulnerabilities, collectively dubbed as Dragonblood, in the newly launched WPA3 WiFi security standard few months ago has now uncovered two more flaws that could allow attackers to hack WiFi passwords. WPA, or WiFi Protected...

USN-4080-1: OpenJDK 8 vulnerabilities

Keegan Ryan discovered that the ECC implementation in OpenJDK was not sufficiently resilient to side-channel attacks. An attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. CVE-2019-2745 It was discovered that OpenJDK did not sufficiently validate serial streams before deserializing...

CVE-2019-14318

Crypto++ 8.3.0 and earlier contains a timing side channel in ECDSA signature generation. This allows a local or remote attacker, able to measure the duration of hundreds to thousands of signing operations, to compute the private key used. The issue occurs because scalar multiplication in ecp.cpp...
