GoFetch Vulnerability in Apple M-Series Chips Can Lead to Leaked Encryption Keys
Security researchers at several universities have discovered and disclosed a flaw in Apple’s M-series chips found in the latest Macs. Named “GoFetch”, this flaw depends on the chip’s Data memory-dependent prefetcher (DMP) feature, which is typically used to load things into the CPU cache. Researchers reverse-engineered the DMP and found that it could leak sensitive […]
