The Impact of Spectre, Meltdown and L1TF in a virtualized RDSH environment
In 2018 the CPU hardware vulnerabilities Spectre, Meltdown and later L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF, also known as ForeShadow) made headlines. Hardware and software vendors released firmware updates and software patches to mitigate these vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, depending on the workload, these mitigations come with a performance impact. This GO-EUC research focusses...
