Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: riscv: Fix TASK_SIZE on 64-bit NOMMU On NOMMU, userspace memory can come from anywhere in physical RAM. The
current definition of TASK_SIZE is wrong if any RAM exists above 4G,
causing spurious failures in the userspace access routines.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: riscv: corrige TASK_SIZE en NOMMU de 64 bits En NOMMU, la memoria del espacio de usuario puede provenir de cualquier lugar de la RAM física. La definición actual de TASK_SIZE es incorrecta si existe RAM por encima de 4G, lo que provoca fallos falsos en las rutinas de acceso al espacio de usuario.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: riscv: Fix TASK_SIZE on 64-bit NOMMU On NOMMU, userspace memory can come from anywhere in physical RAM. The current definition of TASK_SIZE is wrong if any RAM exists above 4G, causing spurious failures in the userspace access routines.

Benedict Schlüter, Supraja Sridhara, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that an untrusted hypervisor could inject malicious #VC interrupts and compromise the security guarantees of AMD SEV-SNP. This flaw is known as WeSee. A local attacker in control of the hypervisor could use this to expose sensitive information or possibly execute arbitrary code in the trusted execution environment. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
