Plundervolt steals keys from cryptographic algorithms
December 13, 2019
An international team of white hat researchers has successfully corrupted the integrity of Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) on Intel Core processors with a software-based fault injection attack aptly dubbed “Plundervolt.” Using Plundervolt, attackers can recover keys from cryptographic algorithms (including the AES-NI instruction set extension) and induce memory safety vulnerabilities into bug-free enclave code.
