Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2025 4:55 am
A team of researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Ruhr University Bochum has uncovered two groundbreaking speculative execution attacks SLAP (Speculation via Load Address Prediction) and FLOP (False Load Output Prediction) that exploit vulnerabilities in Apple Silicon CPUs.
These attacks, targeting devices equipped with Apple’s M2, M3, and corresponding A-series chips, reveal speculative execution weaknesses that could lead to the leakage of sensitive user data.
