On Feasibility and Performance of Rowhammmer Attack

In this paper we study the Rowhammer sidechannel attack and evaluate its feasibility on practical exploitation scenarios in Linux. Currently, all the implementations released, capable of performing the Rowhammer attack, require elevated privileges. This is a very strong requirement which, in a sense, puts ths attack into the theoretical spectrum. The purpose of this report is to explore different techniques that would allow the execution of the Rowhammer attack in userspace. More specifically, we provide two implementations, each of them having different strength of requirements but with one characteristic in common: the capability of executing the Rowhammer attack without elevated privileges. At the end, we see that not only it was possible to reach similar levels of performance with the programs that required elevated privileges, but in some cases even outperform them, in both native and virtual environments

CORELLATION OF LATE TRIASSIC AND EARLY JURASSIC LOFER-TYPE CARBONATES FROM THE PELOPONNESUS PENINSULA, GREECE

Correlation of the Late Triassic carbonate successions, formed at the passive Pelagonian margin (SE of Dhidymi Mt.) with the Early-Middle Liassic successions of the Gavrovo-Tripolitza zone (SE of Leonidion), in eastern and central Peloponnesus respectively, is attempted. Detailed microfacies analysis revealed that the studied carbonate formations were deposited in analogous restricted inner-platform environments (lagoon-peritidal domain) and are composed of meter-scale, shallowing-upward, mostly incomplete peritidal cycles. The top of the supratidal and/ or shallow subtidal deposits are often affected by meteoric diagenesis tracing sea-level lowering and periodic emersions episodes. The well-developed pedogenic features observed in the Early Jurassic platform carbonates indicate long-lasting subaerial exposure intervals and semi-arid to arid climate. Instead, the Late Triassic strata preserve vadose diagenetic indices which point to shorter exposure events, weaker meteoric alteration and slightly wetter climatic conditions. The detected sedimentological features suggest the occurrence of wide lagoonal-peritidal depositional systems during Late Triassic and Early Jurassic, eastern and western of the Pindos basin, respectively. The basic facies pattern and the meter-scale cyclicity show many analogies with the Lofer cycles of the Alpine Triassic, supporting that in the Hellenides the Dachstein-type platform systems evolved till Early-Middle Liassic (Gavrovo-Tripolitza zone)

Genome sequences of two pseudorabies virus strains isolated in Greece

Pseudorabies virus (species Suid herpesvirus 1) belongs to the genus Varicellovirus, subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and is the causative agent of an acute and frequently fatal disease that affects mainly pigs. Here, we report the genome sequences of two strains of this virus isolated in Greece in 2010

An alternative NMSSM phenomenology with manifest perturbative unification

Can supersymmetric models with a moderate stop mass be made consistent with the negative Higgs boson searches at LEP, while keeping perturbative unification manifest? The NMSSM achieves this rather easily, but only if extra matter multiplets filling complete SU(5) representations are present at intermediate energies. As a concrete example which makes use of this feature, we give an analytic description of the phenomenology of a constrained NMSSM close to a Peccei-Quinn symmetry point. The related pseudo-Goldstone boson appears in decays of the Higgs bosons and possibly of the lightest neutralino, and itself decays into (b anti-b) and (tau anti-tau).Comment: 19 pages, 13 figures; v2: possibility of pseudo-Goldstone below 2m_b threshold added, version published by JHE
