Descriptions

The microcode on AMD 16h 00h through 0Fh processors does not properly handle the interaction between locked instructions and write-combined memory types, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted application, aka the errata 793 issue.

El microcode en AMD 16h 00h hasta procesadores 0Fh no maneja adecuadamente la interación entre instrucciones bloqueadas y tipos de memoria de escritura combinada, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del sistema) a través de una aplicación manipulada, también conocido como problema 793.
