Named NetCAT, this is a vulnerability in all Intel chips that support the Data-Direct I/O Technology (Intel DDIO) and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) features. When these two features are enabled, ...

A weakness named NetCAT (Network Cache ATtack) affects all Intel server-grade processors since 2012 and allows sniffing sensitive details by mounting a side-channel attack over the network.

Researchers have found yet another CPU feature that can be abused to leak potentially sensitive data, but this time with a twist: The attacker doesn’t need to have local access on the targeted machine ...

A new attack on Intel server-grade CPUs could allow the leakage of SSH passwords – but luckily it’s not easy to exploit. Researchers have identified a new side-channel attack impacting all modern ...

A new side-channel vulnerability it out, but this one comes with a twist: Rather than exploiting weaknesses in speculative execution routines within the CPU, the vulnerability — named NetCAT by the ...

Often referred to as the "Swiss Army Knife of networking," netcat is a tool that administrators can use to read and write TCP or UDP data across the network. In addition, it's extremely useful for ...

Security researchers have discovered a new chip-level vulnerability, dubbed NetCAT, affecting Intel's server-grade microprocessors, which could enable attackers to sniff potentially sensitive data ...

The netcat tool is quite popular among network administrators. However, it can also serve different purposes for you as a casual Linux user in your day-to-day life. While doing some research, I've ...
