Rowhammer is a great demonstration that the memory abstraction in almost all languages does let you statistically modify the memory of other processes on appropriate hardware!

I don't think rowhammer lets you read memory, though; does it? There are certainly some cache timing attacks that do, though.




I’m not sure, but it’s a great demonstration that, just because the abstraction limits direct access, it can not limit indirect access.
