How Worrying Are Privacy Attacks against Machine Learning?

In several jurisdictions, the regulatory framework on the release and sharing of personal data is being extended to machine learning ML. The implicit assumption is that disclosing a trained ML model entails a privacy risk for any personal data used in training comparable to directly releasing tho...

CVE-2025-64436

KubeVirt is a virtual machine management add-on for Kubernetes. In 1.5.0 and earlier, the permissions granted to the virt-handler service account, such as the ability to update VMI and patch nodes, could be abused to force a VMI migration to an attacker-controlled node. This vulnerability could...

CVE-2025-63384

A vulnerability was discovered in RISC-V Rocket-Chip v1.6 and before implementation where the SRET Supervisor-mode Exception Return instruction fails to correctly transition the processor's privilege level.
