The new flaws, dubbed Foreshadow and L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF), were discovered by two independent research teams. An attacker could exploit the Foreshadow vulnerabilities attacks to gain access to the sensitive data stored in a computers memory or third-party clouds. The flaws affect the Intel’s Core and Xeon processors, they were reported to Intel in January, shortly after the disclosure of Spectre and Meltdown attacks. The patches released for these vulnerabilities don’t have a significant impact on the performance of PCs and workstations.”]
