    "[T]he exploit is the first to show that GPUs can flip individual bits stored in dynamic random-access memory. (...) It's also the first Rowhammer attack that uses standard JavaScript to compromise a smartphone, meaning it can be executed when users do nothing more than visit a malicious website. Another key innovation: on average, GLitch takes less than two minutes to compromise a device"
