上周二,美國芯片制造商英特爾透露其部分微處理器中存在三個漏洞,黑客可能會以此來獲取計算機內存中的一些數據。
Its commonly used Core and Xeon processors were among the products that were affected, the company said.
該公司表示,受到影響的產品包括被廣為使用的酷睿以及至強處理器。
"We are not aware of reports that any of these methods have been used in real-world exploits, but this further underscores the need for everyone to adhere to security best practices," the company said in a blog post
英特爾在博文中表示:“我們尚未獲悉這些方法在現實世界中是否被利用,不過這也進一步強調了所有人都需要遵守安全準則。”
Intel also released updates to address the issue and said new updates coupled those released earlier in the year will reduce the risk for users, including personal computer clients and datacenters.
此外,英特爾將推出更新來解決這些問題,并表示新的更新加上今年早些時候的更新將為用戶減少風險,包括個人電腦用戶以及數據中心。
In January, the company came under scrutiny after security researchers disclosed flaws that they said could let hackers steal sensitive information from nearly every modern computing device containing chips from Intel Corp, Advanced Micro Devices Inc and ARM Holdings.
今年1月,在安全研究人員揭露芯片存在漏洞之后,該公司開始接受審查。安全研究人員表示,這些漏洞能讓黑客在那些使用英特爾、超威半導體以及安謀國際芯片的計算機設備上竊取到敏感信息。
AMD said it was not impacted by the new flaws disclosed by Intel.
超威半導體公司近日表示,英特爾公司公開的新漏洞并不會影響其芯片。
