A group of researchers has revealed details of a new vulnerability affecting Intel CPUs that enables attackers to obtain encryption keys and other secret information from the processors. Dubbed ÆPIC Leak, the weakness is the first-of-its-kind to architecturally disclose sensitive data in a manner that’s akin to an “uninitialized memory read in the CPU itself.” […]
A team of security researchers has developed a modified version of the decryption attack first revealed in 1998 by cryptographer Daniel Bleichenbacher. The attack can compromise a website’s RSA encryption by decrypting the data using the private key of the TLS server. It was possible because of the vulnerability present in the RSA algorithm used […]
When someone talks about stealing some data from a PC, what is the suspected source according to you? You may end up guessing Ethernet, WiFi, or Bluetooth. But once in a while, the truth could be something totally different. The researchers at Tel Aviv University and the Technion of Iran has made a device that […]
