What we learned about TEE security from auditing WhatsApp’s Private Inference
WhatsApp’s new “Private Inference” feature represents one of the most ambitious attempts to combine end-to-end encryption with AI-powered capabilities, such as message summarization. To make this possible, Meta built a system that processes encrypted user messages inside trusted execution environments (TEEs), secure hardware enclaves designed so that not even Meta can access the plaintext. Our…

GPUBreach exploit uses GPU memory bit-flips to achieve full system takeover
GPUBreach attack technique uses GPU memory bit-flips to escalate privileges and potentially take full control of a system. New research shows that attacks like GPUBreach exploit RowHammer bit-flips in GPU memory (GDDR6) to go beyond data corruption. Attackers can use this technique to escalate privileges and, in some cases, gain full control of the system.…
