SpecROP

This repository contains code used for the paper SpecROP: Speculative exploition of ROP chains. This work was published in the 23rd International Symposium on Research in Attacks, Intrusions and Defenses (RAID 2020). The full paper is available here.

The folders are:

  • contexts: This explores the contexts in which branch target poisoning is possible. This corresponds to Section 4.1 in the paper.
  • chaining: This explores the number of gadgets which can be chained using BTB and RSB poisoning (Sections 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 respectively).
  • poc: This is a laboratory proof-of-concept attack based on SMoTherSpectre and corresponds to Section 4.2 in the paper.
  • openssl: This is a realistic attack on OpenSSL. This is described in Section 4.3 in the paper.

Please note that the results might change with processor microcode updates and the software environment.
