Spectre-v1

Introduced by M. Caner Tol et al. in FastSpec: Scalable Generation and Detection of Spectre Gadgets Using Neural Embeddings25 Jun 2020 archive 2025-07-28

  • Description

A dataset of assembly functions that are vulnerable to Spectre-V1 attack.

  • Motivation

Several techniques have been proposed to detect vulnerable Spectre gadgets in widely deployed commercial software. Unfortunately, detection techniques proposed so far rely on hand-written rules which fall short in covering subtle variations of known Spectre gadgets as well as demand a huge amount of time to analyze each conditional branch in software. Moreover, detection tool evaluations are based only on a handful of these gadgets, as it requires arduous effort to craft new gadgets manually.

  • Potential Use Cases

Generating assembly code.

Evaluating new detection tools.
