Failed attempt in July which is being attributed as earliest work via https://twitter.com/lavados/status/948700783259811847 https://twitter.com/lavados/status/948700783259811847
- tdullien 9y agoJann Horn's results & report pre-date the blog post though. The topic was "ripe", so to speak, so multiple parties investigated it at roughly the same time.
- ehsankia 9y agoYeah, the blog post says they knew since June 2017, with that blog post being from July. > This initial report did not contain any information about variant 3. We had discussed whether direct reads from kernel memory could work, but thought that it was unlikely. We later tested and reported variant 3 prior to the publication of Anders Fogh's work at https://cyber.wtf/2017/07/28/negative-result-reading-kernel-memory-from-user-mode/ https://cyber.wtf/2017/07/28/negative-result-reading-kernel-....
- gsnedders 9y agoAIUI, Anders Fogh has collaborated with people at TU Graz on various occasions previously: I'd assume they already knew about his work prior to the blog post.
