Does anyone have any color/details on how this came to be? A major fundamental flaw exists that affects all chips for ~10 years, and multiple independent groups discovered them roughly around the same time this past summer?
My hunch is that someone published some sort of speculative paper / gave a talk ("this flaw could exist in theory") and then everyone was off to the races.
But would be curious if anyone knows the real version?
