Rowhammer Backdoor Injection Attack During Inference (Northeastern)

What happened

Researchers from Northeastern University proposed ROBBIN, a technique that utilizes the Rowhammer vulnerability to inject backdoors during inference. The attack characterizes bit-flip patterns in target DRAM to iteratively select memory rows. This highlights security risks in inference but has not yet impacted the semiconductor supply chain.
