The implementation of DDIO in Intel chips allows for a network attack specifically targeting keystrokes in an SSH session.
A group of researchers from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and ETH Zurich has developed a network attack technique called NetCAT (Network Cache Attack), which allows remote identification of the keys pressed by a user during an SSH session by applying data analysis methods through side channels. This issue occurs only on servers that utilize RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) and DDIO technologies […]
