The Ars Technica submission might be better (I've not read TFA): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48309492 They basically trained a neural network on the data they got from the SSD - and recorded data with other websites open in different tabs or even different browsers. They could then guess/detect other open sites. I presume, if they'd trained/recorded - they might detect other software as well. But right now, they demonstrated (on MacOS) that if you open the exploit in a browser - they can look at SSD activity and tell you have website x, y and z open. Might let you target users of a certain bank, child porn, regular porn, shopping sites... Mostly imagination that sets the limit. | ||
