Researchers Bypass ASLR via Hardware Vulnerability

Flaw in Intel chips could make malware attacks more potent

I knew it was only a matter of time the bad dudes would start exploiting hardware a lot more. warned about this ten years ago.
look at the last attack. they used baby monitors, refrigerators , web cams ect to take down the big time players. the internet of things and the cloud are the new attack vectors.

My BIG concern previously was whether Intel software in conjunction with your Intel hardware would make it easier for your hardware to be exploited. The article indicates this isn't necessarily the case, that memory buffers are more vulnerable. How do you protect this?
