New Tsx Speculative Affects Latest Intel Cpus Certstation Blog Zombieload v2 affects desktops, laptops, and cloud computers running any intel cpus that support tsx, including core, xeon processors, and cascade lake, intel’s line of high end cpus that was introduced in april 2019. In may of this year, the zombieload vulnerability, which affects older intel cpus, was disclosed to the public. zombieload now has a second variant that also works against more recent intel processors. this means that cascade lake, intel’s latest line of high end cpus, is also affected.
Zombieload V2 Affects Latest Intel Cpus Https Debuglies Hence, despite intel's claims, we show that the hardware fixes in new cpus are not sufficient. we demonstrate zombieload's effectiveness in a multitude of practical attack scenarios across cpu privilege rings, os processes, virtual machines, and sgx enclaves. Zombieload v2 works against intel’s latest cpus, despite the company claiming that cascade lake had protection against this kind of attack integrated into the hardware. Researchers have disclosed a new variant of the attack method dubbed zombieload, which appears to also impact intel cpus that are not affected by the first variant of zombieload. Intel is releasing microcode (cpu firmware) updates today to address this new zombieload attack variant, as part of its monthly patch tuesday known as the intel platform update (ipu) process.

A flaw in intel's modern cpu architectures can be used in a new attack. dubbed "zombieload," the vulnerability is similar to the spectre and meltdown bugs that haunted the pc market last. Zombieloadv2 or tsx asynchronousabort (taa) vulnerabilities targeting intel cpus that support tsx feature being disclosed. zombieload was discovered and reported by michael schwarz, moritz lipp and daniel gruss. Zombieload is back. this time a new variant (v2) of the data leaking side channel vulnerability also affects the most recent intel cpus, including the latest cascade lake, which are otherwise resistant against attacks like meltdown, foreshadow and other mds variants (ridl and fallout). This table shows the impact of transient execution attacks and select security issues on currently supported intel® products, including recommended mitigation where affected.
