Affected: Xen

A cross-privilege Spectre v2 vulnerability allows attackers to bypass all deployed mitigations, including the recent Fine(IBT), and to leak arbitrary Linux kernel memory on Intel systems.

Affected: Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-azure-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-azure-fde-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-gcp-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-gkeop-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-ibm-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-lowlatency-hwe-5.15, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: linux-oracle-5.15, Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: linux, Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: linux-azure, Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: linux-azure-fde and 8 more

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 (system crash). (CVE-2024-1151)

Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-0001) were insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2024-2201)

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the RDS Protocol implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-23849)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - PowerPC architecture; - S390 architecture; - Core kernel; - Block layer subsystem; - Android drivers; - Power management core; - Bus devices; - Hardware random number generator core; - Cryptographic API; - Device frequency; - DMA engine subsystem; - ARM SCMI message protocol; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - I2C subsystem; - IIO ADC drivers; - IIO subsystem; - IIO Magnetometer sensors drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - Media drivers…
