Researchers unveil SnailLoad, a new side-channel attack exploiting network latency to infer web activity remotely, achieving up to 98% accuracy in vid

A group of security researchers from the Graz University of Technology have demonstrated a new side-channel attack known as SnailLoad that could be used to remotely infer a user’s web activity. “SnailLoad exploits a bottleneck present on all Internet connections,” the researchers said in a study released this week. "This bottleneck influences the latency of network packets, allowing an attacker
