Google Cloud Warns AMD Turin CPUs Can Leak Data Inside VMs, Urges Patch and Stop-and-Start
Google Cloud has warned customers running virtual machines on AMD Turin processors that three CPU side-channel flaws could let an attacker infer sensitive data from other processes, or from the operating system kernel, inside the same virtual machine. The company said it has already applied mitigations that protect against attacks between separate virtual machines and between a virtual machine and its host, but closing the remaining gap inside a guest will require action from customers.
