A new technical paper titled “Lost and Found in Speculation: Hybrid Speculative Vulnerability Detection” was published by researchers at Technical University of Darmstadt and Texas A&M University.
“We introduce Specure, a novel pre-silicon verification method composing hardware fuzzing with Information Flow Tracking (IFT) to address speculative execution leakages. Integrating IFT enables two significant and non-trivial enhancements over the existing fuzzing approaches: i) automatic detection of microarchitectural information leakages vulnerabilities without golden model and ii) a novel Leakage Path coverage metric for efficient vulnerability detection,” states the paper.
