Hi Tails guys. I opened a ticket for more details about a covert channel issue that was discussed a while back an wanted to kick off the conversation about this attack vector and help with a solution.
Summary: Attacker controlled CPU activity has a direct effect on inter-packet timing, readily visible on the network. Think of JS running in TBB or deliberate resource requests in case of an onion service. In the ticket i outline the progress of a fix and a possible solution we can deploy if it is tested to be effective: https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/17156 _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://www.autistici.org/mailman/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.
