Researchers at the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Germany have unearthed a critical vulnerability within AMD processors that jeopardizes the sanctity of data in fortified virtual environments. This flaw compromises AMD SEV-SNP...
Linux 6.18 is the final major release of 2025, and it is highly likely to become the next long-term support (LTS) version. This means that, in the coming years, 6.18 will serve as the...
A serious vulnerability has been discovered in AMD processors based on the Zen 5 architecture, posing a potential threat to the cryptographic integrity of affected systems. The flaw compromises the hardware implementation of the...
A critical vulnerability has been discovered in AMD’s SEV-SNP hardware protection architecture — widely deployed by major cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud — that allows a malicious hypervisor to...
Researchers at ETH Zurich have unveiled a novel attack dubbed VMScape, bearing strong resemblance to Spectre and posing a significant threat to virtualization infrastructures. The attack enables a malicious virtual machine to extract cryptographic...
Researchers at Google have unveiled an enhanced method for exploiting the Retbleed vulnerability — a flaw that enables the extraction of arbitrary data from the memory of any process on affected systems. This weakness...
Linux kernel version 6.17 introduces a new processor vulnerability management system—Attack Vector Controls—engineered by AMD’s David Kaplan. This enhancement aims to streamline the configuration of CPU vulnerability mitigations for system administrators and advanced Linux...
AMD has disclosed the discovery of a new class of processor vulnerabilities, dubbed Transient Scheduler Attacks (TSA). These attacks exploit speculative side channels arising from specific microarchitectural conditions, potentially leading to the leakage of...
Before the commencement of GDC 2024, Microsoft announced its collaboration with NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Through an API resource known as DirectSR, the initiative aims to enhance the resolution and performance of games on...
For a long time, Linus Torvalds has been using Intel processors. In the recent Linux Kernel 5.7-rc7 announcement, Torvalds revealed that he upgraded his computer configuration and switched his main equipment to AMD Threadripper....
