On the Effectiveness of Hardware Mitigations Against Cross-Privilege Spectre-v2 Attacks
BHI (or Spectre-BHB) is a revival of cross-privilege Spectre-v2 attacks on modern systems deploying in-hardware defenses. And we have a very neat end-to-end exploit leaking arbitrary kernel memory on modern Intel CPUs to prove it (PoC||GTFO right?).
The Danish data protection authority ('Datatilsynet') announced, on 9 March 2022, that it had published a new guide on the use of cloud services, as well as a short overview of frequently asked questions ('FAQs'). In particular, the Datatilsynet stated that the new guide is targeted at data controllers and notes the considerations which data controllers must keep in mind when using a cloud service, including an outline of the pitfalls, opportunities, and obligations that arise when using such technologies.
