In July 2023 a critical vulnerability in the Zen 2 AMD microarchitecture called Zenbleed was made public. [59] AMD released a microcode update to fix it. [60] In August 2023 a vulnerability in AMD's Zen 1, Zen 2, Zen 3, and Zen 4 microarchitectures called Inception [61] [62] was revealed and assigned CVE-2023-20569. According to AMD it is not ...
The vulnerability is known to affect Skylake and later processors from Intel and Zen-based processors from AMD. [54] In February 2023, a team of researchers at North Carolina State University uncovered a new code execution vulnerability called Spectre-HD, also known as "Spectre SRV" or "Spectre v6".
Speculative execution exploit Variant 4, [8] is referred to as Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), [1] [9] and has been assigned CVE-2018-3639. [7] SSB is named Variant 4, but it is the fifth variant in the Spectre-Meltdown class of vulnerabilities.
Retbleed is a speculative execution attack on x86-64 and ARM processors, including some recent Intel and AMD chips. [1] [2] First made public in 2022, it is a variant of the Spectre vulnerability which exploits retpoline, which was a mitigation for speculative execution attacks.
Lazy FPU state leak (CVE-2018-3665), also referred to as Lazy FP State Restore [1] or LazyFP, [2] [3] is a security vulnerability affecting Intel Core CPUs. [1] [4] The vulnerability is caused by a combination of flaws in the speculative execution technology present within the affected CPUs [1] and how certain operating systems handle context switching on the floating point unit (FPU). [2]
SWAPGS, also known as Spectre variant 1, is a computer security vulnerability that utilizes the branch prediction used in modern microprocessors. [1] [2] [3] Most processors use a form of speculative execution, this feature allows the processors to make educated guesses about the instructions that will most likely need to be executed in the near future.
