Problem Description:
On certain Intel 64-bit x86 systems there is a period
of time during terminal fault handling where the CPU may
use speculative execution to try to load data. The CPU may
speculatively access the level 1 data cache (L1D). Data
which would otherwise be protected may then be determined
by using side channel methods.
This issue affects bhyve on FreeBSD/amd64 systems.
Impact:
An attacker executing user code, or kernel code inside
of a virtual machine, may be able to read secret data from
the kernel or from another virtual machine.
