More than six years after the Spectre security flaw impacting modern CPU processors came to light, new research has found that the latest AMD and Intel processors are still susceptible to...
The latest generations of Intel processors, including Xeon chips, and AMD's older Zen 1, Zen 1+, and Zen 2 microarchitectures on Linux are vulnerable to new speculative execution attacks that...
Second sensitive info theft claimed by the same crims since June Digital data thieves have reportedly breached AMD's internal communications and are offering the allegedly stolen goods for sale. …
The bug allows malicious software and rogue privileged users with access to the operating system kernel to run code in System Management Mode, a highly privileged execution environment present in x86 processors from Intel and AMD. SinkClose is unique to AMD. SMM sits below the kernel and hypervisor, as well as applications, in that the management mode has unrestricted access to and control of the machine.

AMD is investigating whether it suffered a cyberattack after a threat actor put allegedly stolen data up for sale on a hacking forum, claiming it contains AMD employee information, financial documents, and confidential information. "We are aware of a cybercriminal organization claiming to be in possession of stolen AMD data," AMD told BleepingComputer in a statement.
Cybersecurity researchers from ETH Zurich have developed a new variant of the RowHammer DRAM (dynamic random-access memory) attack that, for the first time, successfully works against AMD Zen 2...
Academic researchers developed ZenHammer, the first variant of the Rowhammer DRAM attack that works on CPUs based on recent AMD Zen microarchitecture that map physical addresses on DDR4 and DDR5 memory chips. The ZenHammer attack was developed by researchers at public research university ETH Zurich, who shared their technical paper with BleepingComputer.
Researchers at cybersecurity research and consulting firm Trail of Bits have discovered a vulnerability that could allow attackers to read GPU local memory from affected Apple, Qualcomm, AMD and Imagination GPUs. In particular, the vulnerability-which the researchers named LeftoverLocals-can access conversations performed with large language models and machine learning models on affected GPUs.
