Newest Intel Side-Channel Attack Sniffs Out Sensitive Data

Intel processors are vulnerable to a new side-channel attack, which researchers said can allow attackers to steal sensitive information such as encryption keys or passwords. Unlike previous side-channel attacks, this attack does not rely on sharing memory, cache sets and other former tactics...

Malware Can Exploit New Flaw in Intel CPUs to Launch Side-Channel Attacks

A new research has yielded yet another means to pilfer sensitive data by exploiting what's the first "on-chip, cross-core" side-channel attack targeting the ring interconnect used in Intel Coffee Lake and Skylake processors. Published by a group of academics from the University of Illinois at...
