the requirements are easy to meet - you just need to be able to time operations at a suitable precision. The exploits are possible in Javascript running in a browser.
Yeah, I saw the PoC in the Spectre paper, but I was wondering if a JVM language could meet those reqs.
I have absolutely no idea if using the JVM would for example, mess with the required precision since I'm guessing one would need to use JNI/JNA to get the timing and that could maybe not be suitable?
