Abstract

Many operating systems now a days make use of thermal sensors for monitoring the CPU temperature. The monitoring of CPU temperature mainly includes measuring the frequency, energy consumption temperature of the CPU. Some unprivileged users can make use of this thermal sensor to gain access to some secret information. The unprivileged users used to execute programs in order to generate heat within the CPU in order to generate the covert channel in which leakage of information may take place
