Academics from the Vrije University in Amsterdam, Holland, have published a research paper today describing a new variation of the Rowhammer attack. For readers unfamiliar with the term, Rowhammer is ...

Researchers have revealed a new type of Rowhammer attack on DRAM devices that can reliably bypass mitigations implemented by vendors after the first such attacks emerged in 2014. Data in Dynamic DRAM ...

Remember the RowHammer memory attack from many moons ago?? Well, it's back in a new form despite numerous mitigations that memory manufacturers have put in place to prevent this style of attack. A ...

Researchers have developed a new fuzzing-based technique called 'Blacksmith' that revives Rowhammer vulnerability attacks against modern DRAM devices that bypasses existing mitigations. The emergence ...

In 2015, Researchers at Google made a troubling discovery: The data theft technique known as “Rowhammer,” previously thought of as a theoretical concern, could be exploited in real-world conditions.

Security researchers have come up with a variation of the Rowhammer attack that bypasses all previously proposed countermeasures. The term Rowhammer is used to describe a security exploit that takes ...

Over the last few years, we've seen an increasing number of hacks and exploits targeting fundamental properties of underlying hardware, rather than relying on software vulnerabilities. One such attack ...

Software, from web apps, to operating systems to firmware, has been abused and exploited every which way from Sunday for decades by both researchers and attackers. Now, it is hardware’s turn in the ...

In early 2015, researchers unveiled Rowhammer, a cutting-edge hack that exploits unfixable physical weaknesses in the silicon of certain types of memory chips to transform data they stored. In the 42 ...
