- Additional information
- This research addressed in this paper affects to all x86 mobile, laptop and desktop computers available nowadays without exception. It has demonstrated that no protection mechanism to mitigate memory errors provides complete protection against already known attack vectors. This is the identification of a world-wide challenge with a significant impact to demonstrate the current lack of effective cyber-security measures.
