Foreshadow/L1TF: Another highly publicized Intel flaw, complete with its own web site and logo

Posted on August 14, 2018 at 15:46 CDT by woody • Comment in the Forums

You’re going to see a whole bunch of explainers about this, yet another Meltdown/Spectre-class vulnerability in Intel processors.

Intel’s FAQ lists just about every Intel processor.

Microsoft’s FAQ explains how L1TF works.

And, yes, Foreshadow has its own web site. With a free-to-use high quality logo.

Let’s see if we get another crazy round of claims and patches — more sound and fury directed at a potential attack that, while real, hasn’t yet hit the fan.

You can tell it’s a co-ordinated disclosure because it was announced immediately after the Patch Tuesday releases.
