Abstract:Side-channel attacks based on speculative execution access sensitive data and use transmitters to leak such data during wrongpath execution. Speculative side-channel defenses have been proposed to prevent such information leakage. In one class of defenses, speculative instructions are considered unsafe and are delayed until they become non-speculative.However, not all speculative instructions are unsafe: Recent work demonstrates that speculative invariant instructions are independent of a speculative control-f… Show more
