Two new Intel CPU flaws make it easy for hackers to extract sensitive data Security researchers revealed details about a new vulnerability in Intel processors that allows hackers to take advantage of the way multi-core architecture works in order to grant access to sensitive data on compromised systems. The findings were published by academics… www.techspot.com The first appears to be an advanced version of the CacheOut attack revealed earlier this year, in which hackers could extract contents from the CPU's L1 cache. Researchers explain that SGAxe is a result of Intel's failed attempts at mitigating side-channel attacks against Software Guard Extensions (SGX), which is the dedicated area of a CPU that's supposed to ensure the integrity...
