Looks like #apple M2 #silicon is #vulnerable to a highh dimension #speculative #vector #attack https://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.01131.pdf The #paper suggests it is completely #impossible to #patch too... I would love to see somebody run the #code in the #paper to test it!
Pretty interesting. The #cpu #speculative #computing that #intel and #amd had *massive* #security #issues with recently seems to be #redundant with some better #designed #cpu #architecture that better handles some #edgecases https://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/academic/c.. This could be a way forward for both #companies , and potentially something for #arm to look at!
