21 | Flush+Reload: a High Resolution, Low Noise, L3 Cache Side-Channel | ||
22 | Attack by Yuval Yarom and Katrina Falkner. 18 July 2013. | ||
23 | |||
24 | Flush+Reload is a cache side-channel attack that monitors access to | ||
25 | data in shared pages. In this paper we demonstrate how to use the | ||
26 | attack to extract private encryption keys from GnuPG. The high | ||
27 | resolution and low noise of the Flush+Reload attack enables a spy | ||
28 | program to recover over 98% of the bits of the private key in a | ||
29 | single decryption or signing round. Unlike previous attacks, the | ||
30 | attack targets the last level L3 cache. Consequently, the spy | ||
31 | program and the victim do not need to share the execution core of | ||
32 | the CPU. The attack is not limited to a traditional OS and can be | ||
33 | used in a virtualised environment, where it can attack programs | ||
34 | executing in a different VM. | ||
