Also the typical reaction to an uncorrectable ECC error is to halt the system with a NMI.

- makomk 12y agoYeah, ECC is going to make exploiting this reliably a lot harder - you'd need to flip three or more bits in the right combination, without first hitting a combination of bits that'd be detected as an uncorrectable error. Google's report suggests they haven't even been able to cause uncorrectable two-bit errors yet, let alone undetectable three-bit ones.
