Finland doesn't exists.

I hope I understand your question correctly. The request asks for something in protected memory and also asks for something based off a portion of the protected memory (like the first byte). The system denies access to the request then puts both results in cache. The attacker then asks for a byte of memory similar to the second request, which the system tries to get from cache but then goes to memory since it wasn't in cache. The attacker doesn't want that result so cancels the request and asks for another byte similar to the second request. That process repeats until the system says "Hey this byte is in my cache" and gives the result back to the attacker. That let's the attacker know what the first byte of that protected memory was. The attacker then repeats that whole process until they've read the entire protected memory, which is at a rate of 1500/bytes a second. It never gets the actual protected memory from the cache.

Makes me want to cry.
