Simple Rowhammer attack PoC for Raspberry Pi 3B+

• Download rowhammer.c on the Rapsberry Pi with git clone https://github.com/developedby/rowhammer_rpi3.git or your preferred method.
• Compile with gcc rowhammer.c -o rowhammer.
• Execute with sudo ./rowhammer, follow the instructions of the CLI interface.

This code is based on [https://github.com/0x5ec1ab/rowhammer_armv8], trimmed down to only the essential parts. It also has some slight modifications to work on Raspberry Pi instead of their board.

This was only tested on the Raspberry Pi 3B+ and will most likely not work on boards that have different memory chips.
