http://web.mit.edu/press/2012/thwarting-eavesdropping-data.html The above is a link to an article on a security threat called side channel attack. I don't completely understand how it can work, as the description is somewhat vague. But obviously some very intelligent people can understand it, and can make it work. If someone is familiar with this area and could give a more detailed description, I'd appreciate it. The main question, though; is Fedora vulnerable to this sort of attack? It sounds like it is a combination of hardware and software usage patterns that create the vulnerability, so do things like randomized heap make this impossible? -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
