‘Foreshadow” and other vulnerabilities in Intel processors can be exploited to steal sensitive information stored inside personal computers or personal clouds.

The most recent Spectre-class flaw targets a component in CPUs called the return stack buffer.

These vulnerabilities have existed for over 20 years, and we are not even close to closing the door on these significant risks.

A new feature called site isolation is being tapped to protect Chrome users against Spectre.

InfoSec Insider Justin Jett shares his opinions on how to avoid false positive security threat fatigue before sets in and companies drop their guard.

The planned threading in shared memory update gives bad actors a way around the timer mitigations released by browser vendors.

The new hardware-based protections Intel announced earlier in March it was embedding into new chips will only protect against Spectre and Meltdown – but not the newly disclosed Variant 4, sources said.

Yet another speculative execution side channel flaw has been disclosed in processors – and security experts warn that more may be out there.

Intel on Monday acknowledged that its processors are vulnerable to another Spectre-like speculative execution side channel flaw that could allow attackers to access information.

Intel may be facing as many as eight new Spectre-level vulnerabilities in its chips, a German magazine alleges.
