New Rowhammer attacks give complete control of machines running Nvidia GPUs
Researchers have developed two new Rowhammer attacks, GDDRHammer and GeForge, that exploit vulnerabilities in Nvidia's Ampere-generation GPUs to gain full root control of host machines by flipping bits in GPU memory and bypassing CPU protections. The attacks require IOMMU to be disabled, which is the default BIOS setting, and affect the RTX 3060 and RTX 6000 models.
