i don't think either of those are genuine or authentic actually
A screenshot of the CPUID Wikipedia page. It says that the Microsoft x86-to-ARM emulator reports its ID string as "AuthenticAMD" and that Apple's Rosetta 2 reports its ID string as "GenuineIntel".

genuineio.tel
GenuineIotel is one of the CPUID strings ever

hey @amd may i please have commit access to the APM i'd like to document cpuid leaf 8000001A EAX.3 for you (it's "FP512", "The internal FP/SIMD execution data path is 512 bits wide.")
a screenshot of a cpuid dump from github, for Granite Ridge. a value for register eax from CPUID leaf 8000001A is highlighted and has the value "0000000A" a screenshot of the AMD Architecture Programmer's Manual showing that it was last updated July 2, showing the documentation for CPUID leaf 8000_001A register EAX. bit 0 is FP128, bit 1 is MOVU, bit 2 is FP256, bits 3:13 are reserved. the prior screenshot shows bits 1 and 3 set.

there was a non-zero chance that if you bought a haswell cpu and you overclocked it, it would activate a bitflip in the CPUID that would make it report the CPU as "genuineiotel"

CPU-Z and HWMonitor nerd (@d0cTB) put out a statement.

Compromise was present for approx. 6 hours. This is an extremely short period of time.

Also, extremely fast response by the nerds at cpuid.

Mr. Titus Tech is correct. cpuid-dot-com is indeed delivering malware right now.

As I began poking this with I stick I discovered this is not your typical run-of-the-mill malware. This malware is deeply trojanized, distributes from a compromised domain (cpuid-dot-com), performs file

absolute slop nobody else will get without reading the wikipedia article for CPUID
The following are ID strings used by actual processors, listed in order of their introduction: "GenuineIntel" – Intel "UMC UMC UMC " – UMC "AuthenticAMD" – AMD "CyrixInstead" – Cyrix – also licensed by STMicroelectronics and IBM "NexGenDriven" – NexGen "CentaurHauls" – Centaur – owned by IDT, then VIA, then Zhaoxin "RiseRiseRise" – Rise "SiS SiS SiS " – SiS (ex-Rise) "GenuineTMx86" – Transmeta – used in standard CPUID leaf 0000_0000h, for Intel compatibility "TransmetaCPU" – Transmeta – used in extended CPUID leaf 8000_0000h and leaf 8086_0000h "Geode by NSC" – National Semiconductor – acquired by AMD "Vortex86 SoC" – DM&P Vortex86 (ex-SiS) "Genuine RDC" – RDC Semiconductor Co. Ltd.[7] (ex-SiS) "HygonGenuine" – Hygon (AMD Zen lineage) " Shanghai " – Zhaoxin (Centaur Isaiah lineage) "GenuineIotel" – Intel – rare – likely caused by a 1-bit error – one full report + a few partial reports[8][9]

fun fact: on at least zen 2 you can hide PCLMULQDQ support by clearing bit 33 in MSR c0011004. but that doesn't disable the instruction itself n_n
a gdb invocation single-stepping through a program. it queries cpuid, shows that leaf 1 ecx reports that pclmulqdq is not supported, then boldly executes it anyway. it runs fine. exact text does not transcribe well probably: > gdb --batch-silent --command dbgscript -q --args taskset -ac 4 ./pclmulqdq Function "_start" not defined. 0x401010 <_start>: mov $0x1,%eax 0x401015 <_start+5>: mov $0x0,%ecx # cpuid leaf: 0x1 0x40101a <_start+10>: cpuid # leaf 1 ecx: 0x7ed83209 # - bit 2 (pclmulqdq): 0 0x40101c <_start+12>: movups 0x401000,%xmm3 0x401024 <_start+20>: movups 0x401000,%xmm4 0x40102c <_start+28>: pclmulhqhqdq %xmm4,%xmm3 0x401032 <_start+34>: mov $0x3c,%eax 0x401037 <_start+39>: pextrq $0x1,%xmm3,%rdi => 0x40103e <_start+46>: syscall [Inferior 1 (process 279224) exited with code 04] # exit code: 4
