Researchers have devised a new method that allows potential attackers to leak sensitive information. The attack, dubbed PLATYPUS, abuses a legitimate CPU interface for monitoring and controlling the power consumption. The Linux kernel developers released a security update that revokes unprivileged access to the RAPL interface. Intel released microcode updates to address the attack scenario against Intel’s SGX technology that need to be installed on systems and servers affected by the attack. Intel SGX is a memory isolation technology present in modern Intel CPUs that implements a trusted execution environment (TEE)”]
