Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kunit: Fix kthread reference There is a race condition when a kthread finishes after the deadline and
before the call to kthread_stop(), which may lead to use after free.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: kunit: Fix kthread reference Hay una condición de ejecución cuando un kthread finaliza después de la fecha límite y antes de la llamada a kthread_stop(), lo que puede llevar a su use-after-free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kunit: Fix kthread reference There is a race condition when a kthread finishes after the deadline and before the call to kthread_stop(), which may lead to use after free.

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.
