Definitely not true. Both my recent AMD CPU's (FX-8150 and FX-4350)

They refer to a possible attack and provide links to other sites. One of the
sites has a link to the following:

I don't know of any known problems with AES/CBC. It is simply the most
trusted crypto algorithm in the history of computing. It isn't possible
prove that something can't be broken, but many, many very smart people
have spent many years searching for an attack over 15+ years without
success.
Do you know AES-NI also support AES/GCM (Gaulois Counter Mode)? I have
read several articles that advise to use AES/GCM as a replacement of RC4,
as it address some of the problems with AES/CBC (known plaintext attack).

It seems that AMD might be exaggerating their suppo
I've done some moderately careful performance apples to apples
comparisons for various crypto functions with not very surprising
results. In general:
AES-NI < RC4 < ChaCha20 < AES (software)
The two AES functions, the Botan software version and the DJ Bernstein
