High-Intensity Rowhammer Attack On GPUs Leveraging Non-uniform Hammering (U. of Toronto)

NVIDIASemiconductorsNVIDIA / GPUMemory
<p>Researchers at the University of Toronto published a technical paper titled “GPUThor: Amplifying Rowhammer Attacks via Non-Uniform Patterns to Exploit ECC-Protected GPUs.” Abstract Excerpt “We present GPUThor, a high-intensity Rowhammer attack on NVIDIA GPUs leveraging non-uniform hammering. GPUThor reverse engineers GPU memory-access coalescing behavior to enable non-uniform hammering patterns on GPUs, that activate aggressor rows... <a class="read_more" href="https://semiengineering.com/high-intensity-rowhammer-attack-on-gpus-leveraging-non-uniform-hammering-u-of-toronto/">&#187; read more</a></p> <p>The post <a href="https://semiengineering.com/high-intensity-rowhammer-attack-on-gpus-leveraging-non-uniform-hammering-u-of-toronto/">High-Intensity Rowhammer Attack On GPUs Leveraging Non-uniform Hammering (U. of Toronto)</a> appeared first on <a href="https://semiengineering.com">Semiconductor Engineering</a>.</p>
