Intel CPUs Face Spectre-Like ‘Indirector’ Attack That Leaks Data

July 3, 2024 at 10:33AM Researchers at UCSD have developed a new method, called “Indirector,” to execute Spectre-like side channel attacks on high-end Intel CPUs. This technique exploits the speculative execution feature to redirect a program’s control flow, potentially leaking sensitive data. The attack works on various generations of Intel CPUs and poses challenges for … Read more
