CVE-2021-26314amdall supported processors+8
EPSS score0.61%
Potential floating point value injection in all supported CPU products, in conjunction with software vulnerabilities relating to speculative execution with incorrect floating point results, may cause the use of incorrect data from FPVI and may result in data leakage.CVE-2021-26313amdall supported processors+9EPSS score0.33%
Potential speculative code store bypass in all supported CPU products, in conjunction with software vulnerabilities relating to speculative execution of overwritten instructions, may cause an incorrect speculation and could result in data leakage.CVE-2020-13844armcortex-a32_firmware+110EPSS score0.49%
Arm Armv8-A core implementations utilizing speculative execution past unconditional changes in control flow may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis, aka "straight-line speculation."CVE-2022-48251armcortex-a53_firmware+9EPSS score0.83%
The AES instructions on the ARMv8 platform do not have an algorithm that is "intrinsically resistant" to side-channel attacks. NOTE: the vendor reportedly offers the position "while power side channel attacks ... are possible, they are not directly caused by or related to the Arm architecture."CVE-2022-25368amperecomputingampere_altra_firmware+21EPSS score0.30%
Spectre BHB is a variant of Spectre-v2 in which malicious code uses the shared branch history (stored in the CPU BHB) to influence mispredicted branches in the victim's hardware context. Speculation caused by these mispredicted branches can then potentially be used to cause cache allocation, which can then be used to infer information that should be protected.CVE-2022-23960alpinexen+86EPSS score0.50%
Certain Arm Cortex and Neoverse processors through 2022-03-08 do not properly restrict cache speculation, aka Spectre-BHB. An attacker can leverage the shared branch history in the Branch History Buffer (BHB) to influence mispredicted branches. Then, cache allocation can allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information.CVE-2017-5753alpineintel-ucode+375EPSS score93.84%
Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis.CVE-2024-10929armcortex-a57_firmware+3EPSS score0.17%
In certain circumstances, an issue in Arm Cortex-A57, Cortex-A72 (revisions before r1p0), Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A75 may allow an adversary to gain a weak form of control over the victim's branch history.
