Patent number: 12248570Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for detecting side-channel exploit attacks such as Spectre and Meltdown. Performance monitoring circuitry includes first counter circuitry to monitor CPU cache misses and second counter circuitry to monitor DTLB load misses. Upon detecting an excessive number of cache misses and/or load misses, the performance monitoring circuitry transfers the first and second counter circuitry data to control circuitry. The control circuitry determines a CPU cache miss to DTLB load miss ratio for each of a plurality of temporal intervals. The control circuitry the identifies, determines, and/or detects a pattern or trend in the CPU cache miss to DTLB load miss ratio. Upon detecting a deviation from the identified CPU cache miss to DTLB load miss ratio pattern or trend indicative of a potential side-channel exploit attack, the control circuitry generates an output to alert a system user or system administrator.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2022Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Paul Carlson, Rahuldeva Ghosh, Baiju Patel, Zhong Chen
