The new Apple M2 SoC has made its first appearance on both GFXBench and Cinebench, and its GPU part seemingly performed way above expectations on the former benchmark. The Apple M2 managed a +45.47% performance leap over the M1 in GFXBench’s Aztec Ruins Normal Tier Offscreen test, soundly overtaking Apple’s own +35% GPU performance claim.
MIT researchers present PACMAN, a new speculative execution attack that bypasses the software security primitive called pointer authentication on Apple’s M1 processor.
Led by MIT's Mengjia Yan, researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (MIT CSAIL) created the novel attack using a combination of memory corruption and.
Researchers at MIT have uncovered a highly dangerous security flaw in Apple’s M1 chip, which targets the system’s pointer authentication codes and can severely impact future ARM-based silicon.
