Load value injection is an attack on Intel microprocessors that can be used to attack Intel's SGX technology.[1] It is a development of the previously known Meltdown security vulnerability. Unlike Meltdown, which can only read hidden data, LVI can inject data values, and is resistant to the countermeasures so far used to mitigate the Meltdown vulnerability.[2]
