Hardware Vulnerability in Apple’s M-Series Chips https://securityboulevard.com/2024/03/hardware-vulnerability-in-apples-m-series-chips/ https://securityboulevard.com/2024/03/hardware-vulnerability-in-apples-m-series-chips/#respond Thu, 28 Mar 2024 11:05:01 +0000 https://www.schneier.com/?p=68657 It’s yet another hardware side-channel attack:

The threat resides in the chips’ data memory-dependent prefetcher, a hardware optimization that predicts the memory addresses of data that running code is likely to access in the near future. By loading the contents into the CPU cache before it’s actually needed, the DMP, as the feature is abbreviated, reduces latency between the main memory and the CPU, a common bottleneck in modern computing. DMPs are a relatively new phenomenon found only in M-series chips and Intel’s 13th-generation Raptor Lake microarchitecture, although older forms of prefetchers have been common for years...

However, traditional security measures like at-rest data encryption have shown significant cracks against modern threats. This is where Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for databases steps in, becoming a crucial line of defense for safeguarding your data in the ever-evolving threat landscape.…
