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.

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.…
