Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: [ceph] parse_longname(): strrchr() expects NUL-terminated string ... and parse_longname() is not guaranteed that. That's the reason
why it uses kmemdup_nul() to build the argument for kstrtou64();
the problem is, kstrtou64() is not the only thing that need it. Just get a NUL-terminated copy of the entire thing and be done
with that...

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: [ceph] parse_longname(): strrchr() espera una cadena terminada en NUL... y parse_longname() no lo garantiza. Por eso usa kmemdup_nul() para construir el argumento de kstrtou64(); el problema es que kstrtou64() no es el único que lo necesita. Simplemente obtenga una copia terminada en NUL de todo el conjunto y listo.

It was discovered that improper initialization of CPU cache memory could allow a local attacker with hypervisor access to overwrite SEV-SNP guest memory resulting in loss of data integrity. Oleksii Oleksenko, Cedric Fournet, Jana Hofmann, Boris Köpf, 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.
