- muricula 5y agoI'm not sure about that. I think it's just that the AES hardware was busted somehow and didn't actually perform the AES algorithm correctly. The intel AES hardware just deterministically performs the algorithm, so Intel can't just weaken the algorithm somehow, at least if you're not worrying about local side channels.
