Speculative Code Store Bypass

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Modern superscalar processors may employ sophisticated decoding and caching of the instruction stream to improve performance. However, a consequence is that self-modifying code updates may not take effect instantly. Whatever the architectural guarantees, some CPUs have...

java-1.8.0-openjdk bug fix and enhancement update

The java-1.8.0-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 8 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 8 Java Software Development Kit. Bug Fixes and Enhancements: Currently, Java applications run with Speculative Store Bypass SSB, CVE-2018-3639 disabled. Disabling SSB results in a performance degradatio...

A logic bug flaw was found in Linux kernel before 5.8-rc1 in the implementation of SSBD. A bug in the logic handling allows an attacker with a local account to disable SSBD protection during a context switch when additional speculative execution mitigations are in place. This issue was introduced when the per task/process conditional STIPB switching was added on top of the existing SSBD switching. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
