CVE-2023-0045 – Incorrect indirect branch prediction barrier in the Linux Kernel
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-0045
The current implementation of the prctl syscall does not issue an IBPB immediately during the syscall. The ib_prctl_set function updates the Thread Information Flags (TIFs) for the task and updates the SPEC_CTRL MSR on the function __speculation_ctrl_update, but the IBPB is only issued on the next schedule, when the TIF bits are checked. This leaves the victim vulnerable to values already injected on the BTB, prior to the prctl syscall. The patch that added the support for the conditional mitigation via prctl (ib_prctl_set) dates back to the kernel 4.9.176.

CVE-2023-23039
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-23039
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.2.0-rc2. drivers/tty/vcc.c has a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a VCC device while calling open(), aka a race condition between vcc_open() and vcc_remove(). • https://lkml.org/lkml/2023/1/1/169 • CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') •

CVE-2023-23586 – Use after free in io_uring in the Linux Kernel
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-23586
Due to a vulnerability in the io_uring subsystem, it is possible to leak kernel memory information to the user process. timens_install calls current_is_single_threaded to determine if the current process is single-threaded, but this call does not consider io_uring's io_worker threads, thus it is possible to insert a time namespace's vvar page to process's memory space via a page fault. When this time namespace is destroyed, the vvar page is also freed, but not removed from the process' memory, and a next page allocated by the kernel will be still available from the user-space process and can leak memory contents via this (read-only) use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past version 5.10.161 or commit 788d0824269bef539fe31a785b1517882eafed93 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/io_uring • https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/io_uring?h=linux-5.10.y&id=788d0824269bef539fe31a785b1517882eafed93 https://kernel.dance/#788d0824269bef539fe31a785b1517882eafed93 • CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2022-3424
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2022-3424
A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s SGI GRU driver in the way the first gru_file_unlocked_ioctl function is called by the user, where a fail pass occurs in the gru_check_chiplet_assignment function. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2132640 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/643a16a0eb1d6ac23744bb6e90a00fc21148a9dc https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2023/05/msg00005.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2023/05/msg00006.html https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221019031445.901570-1-zyytlz.wz%40163.com https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20230406-0005 https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg4518970.html • CWE-416: Use After Free •
