          159 <p>Rowhammer, the DRAM vulnerability that was supposedly fixed in DDR4 is not fixed in DDR4. The <a href="https://www.vusec.net/projects/trrespass/">TRRespass</a> attack shows that DIMMs from all 3 major vendors (good for 95% of the market) are still vulnerable.  The news appeared in different international media (see the writeup on <a href="https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2020/03/11/trrepass-research-reveals-rowhammering-is-alive-and-well/">NakedSecurity</a>) and in the Netherlands in de <a href="https://www.volkskrant.nl/nieuws-achtergrond/vrijwel-elke-laptop-smartphone-en-server-ter-wereld-kwetsbaar-voor-aanvallen-ontdekt-vu~b23b8656/">Volkskrant</a>. There was a short interview on <a href="https://www.nporadio1.nl/langs-de-lijn-en-omstreken/uitzendingen/735849-2020-03-10">Radio 1 (22:51 h).</a></p>
