In January 2018, the entire computer industry was put on alert by two new processor vulnerabilities dubbed Meltdown and Spectre that defeated the fundamental OS security boundaries separating kernel and user space memory. The flaws stemmed from a performance feature of modern CPUs known as speculative execution and mitigating them required one of the biggest patch coordination […]
newswww.csoonline.comJul 15, 2024, 5:59 AMOn May 21, 2018, Google Project Zero (GPZ), Microsoft and Intel disclosed two new Spectre- and Meltdown-related chip vulnerabilities: Speculative Store Bypass (SSB) and Rogue System Registry Read. The customer risk from both disclosures is low. Then on June 13, 2018, Intel released a security advisory on the Lazy FP State Restore vulnerability, CVE-2018-3665, involving […]
