Intel Processors Vulnerable to Data Leak from Spectre-Like Attack

Intel Processors Vulnerable to Data Leak from Spectre-Like Attack

Researchers at UCSD have identified a new method to conduct Spectre-like side-channel attacks on high-end Intel CPUs, such as Raptor Lake and Alder Lake processors. This technique, called Director, leverages speculative execution features in Intel CPUs to manipulate a program’s control flow and potentially leak sensitive data. The attack was tested on various Intel CPUs, … Read more
