Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (coretemp) Fix out-of-bounds memory access Fix a bug that pdata->cpu_map[] is set before out-of-bounds check.
The problem might be triggered on systems with more than 128 cores per
package.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: hwmon: (coretemp) Arreglar el acceso a memoria fuera de los límites Arreglar un error que pdata->cpu_map[] está configurado antes de la verificación de los límites. El problema podría surgir en sistemas con más de 128 núcleos por paquete.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (coretemp) Fix out-of-bounds memory access Fix a bug that pdata->cpu_map[] is set before out-of-bounds check. The problem might be triggered on systems with more than 128 cores per package.

It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel could overflow its stack during recursive action operations under certain conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability were insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.
