Description

Information exposure through microarchitectural state after transient execution in certain vector execution units for some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via local access.
A Gather Data Sampling (GDS) transient execution side-channel vulnerability was found affecting certain Intel processors. This issue may allow a local attacker using gather instruction (load from memory) to infer stale data from previously used vector registers on the same physical core.
