CVE-2017-5753

CVE-2017-5753 is part of the Spectre family (Variant 1) described in the SPECTRE_MELTDOWN_ADVISORY: it involves speculative execution and a bounds-check bypass that can enable an unprivileged attacker to read privileged memory via cache timing analysis. IBM’s AIX/VIOS advisories and iFixes addres...

CVE-2018-3639

CVE-2018-3639 is a speculative execution side‑channel vulnerability (SSB) that can leak memory via speculative stores. The Connected ALMA doc notes a mitigation: SSB is disabled by the new alt-java launcher, reducing impact at the cost of performance, and it references OpenJDK 8u282 as part of th...

CVE-2017-5754

CVE-2017-5754 is the Meltdown vulnerability: a speculative-execution side-channel in kernels could allow a local attacker to read privileged memory. Apple documents show Meltdown affecting Kernel on iOS/macOS/watchOS with related entries (e.g., CVE-2017-5754) and list mitigation via security upda...

CVE-2018-3646

CVE-2018-3646 is the L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF) vulnerability affecting systems with Intel CPUs. It allows a local attacker, including guests in virtualized environments, to read data from the L1 data cache via side-channel analysis. Apple’s Hypervisor entry ties this to speculative execution/guest...

CVE-2018-3665

CVE-2018-3665 affects systems using Intel Core-based CPUs with Lazy FP state restore enabled. A local attacker could exploit speculative execution side channels to read FP/SIMD state from other processes or the kernel. Public details in connected docs show Linux kernel mitigations (disable Lazy F...

CVE-2018-3693

CVE-2018-3693 (Spectre-NG Variant 1.1) affects speculative execution/branch-prediction CPUs and can allow local attackers to read memory via side-channels. Connected docs show F5 advisories for BIG-IP, BIG-IQ, and Traffix SDC listing affected platforms and indicate exposure is local (requires aut...

CVE-2018-3620

CVE-2018-3620 describes an information disclosure via speculative execution side-channel (L1TF) affecting Intel CPUs where data in the L1 data cache could be read by a local attacker through OS/page-table interactions. The CVE covers OS/SMM impact and, in related variants, VMM/guest contexts, ena...

CVE-2018-3615

CVE-2018-3615 (L1 Terminal Fault: SGX) is a speculative‑execution side‑channel vulnerability affecting Intel SGX: a local attacker can exfiltrate data from an SGX enclave through the L1 data cache. The underlying cause is transient execution that, after a fault is raised, can still leak cache dat...

CVE-2018-3640

CVE-2018-3640 affects macOS EFI/Hypervisor components on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 and Mojave 10.14, where systems with speculative execution and speculative reads of system registers may leak information via a side‑channel. The root cause is speculative execution side‑channel disclosures; a micr...

CVE-2021-0144

CVE-2021-0144 (Intel BSSA DFT) is triggered by insecure default variable initialization in the BIOS Shared SW Architecture Design for Test feature, enabling local privilege escalation for authenticated/privileged users. Public adapters include Intel’s advisory INTEL-SA-00525 and related vendor bu...

CVE-2021-0114

CVE-2021-0114 refers to an unchecked return value in the firmware for some Intel processors that could enable a local attacker to escalate privileges. The vulnerability is documented across multiple advisories (Intel IPU BIOS advisory and IBM HP/IBM QRadar related notes) and is described as a loc...

CVE-2018-9056

CVE-2018-9056 (BranchScope) describes a side-channel vulnerability affecting processors using speculative execution, enabling local attackers to infer memory contents through the Branch Prediction Unit’s patterns, notably the Pattern History Table (PHT). Documents consistently reference a hardwar...

CVE-2018-3619

CVE-2018-3619 describes an information-disclosure vulnerability in storage media when using an Intel® Optane™ memory module with BitLocker-enabled Whole Disk Encryption. A small region on the non-Optane memory can remain unencrypted if BitLocker is enabled after configuring the Optane module, pot...

CVE-2020-24491

CVE-2020-24491 concerns a potential information disclosure in Intel SGX on some 10th Generation Intel Core processors. The issue is triggered by a debug message that reveals addresses of memory transactions, which a privileged user could use to disclose information via local access. Affected prod...
