{"id":"USN-6577-1","summary":"linux-aws vulnerabilities","details":"Jana Hofmann, Emanuele Vannacci, Cedric Fournet, Boris Kopf, and Oleksii\nOleksenko discovered that some AMD processors could leak stale data from\ndivision operations in certain situations. A local attacker could possibly\nuse this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2023-20588)\n\nIt was discovered that a race condition existed in the Linux kernel when\nperforming operations with kernel objects, leading to an out-of-bounds\nwrite. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system\ncrash) or execute arbitrary code.
