Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Fix WMI data block retrieval in sysfs callbacks After retrieving WMI data blocks in sysfs callbacks, check for the
validity of them before dereferencing their content.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: plataforma/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: reparar la recuperación de bloques de datos WMI en devoluciones de llamadas sysfs Después de recuperar bloques de datos WMI en devoluciones de llamadas sysfs, verifique su validez antes de desreferenciar su contenido.

Oleksii Oleksenko, Cedric Fournet, Jana Hofmann, Boris K\xF6pf, Stavros Volos, and Flavien Solt discovered that some AMD processors may allow an attacker to infer data from previous stores, potentially resulting in the leakage of privileged information. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
