A brand-new side-channel attack technique that can result in data leakage is applicable to nearly all contemporary CPUs.
Eight researchers from the Graz University of Technology in Austria and the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Germany carried out the study.
Several other side-channel attack techniques, as well as the infamous Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities, were also discovered by some of the researchers’ experts.
Meltdown and a vulnerability known as Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) have both been compared to the new attack, Collide+Power. A generic software-based attack called Collide+Power targets computers with Intel, AMD, or Arm processors.
