Breaking Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization with Intel TSX

Explore a groundbreaking security research presentation from the 23rd ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS 2016). Delve into the work of Yeongjin Jang, Sangho Lee, and Taesoo Kim from Georgia Institute of Technology as they demonstrate techniques for breaking Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (KASLR) using Intel TSX technology. Learn about the implications of this research for system security and potential countermeasures. Gain insights into advanced exploitation techniques and their impact on kernel protection mechanisms in this 33-minute talk delivered at the prestigious Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria.
