CVE-2023-3006

CVE-2023-3006 describes a Spectre-BHB (Branch History Injection) cache-speculation vulnerability affecting AmpereOne hardware. Malicious code can use the CPU Branch History Buffer to influence mispredicted branches, triggering speculative execution that leads to cache allocation and potential inf...

CVE-2023-0459 Copy_from_user Spectre-V1 Gadget in Linux Kernel

Copyfromuser on 64-bit versions of the Linux kernel does not implement the uaccessbeginnospec allowing a user to bypass the "accessok" check and pass a kernel pointer to copyfromuser. This would allow an attacker to leak information. We recommend upgrading beyond...

Debian dla-3404 : linux-config-5.10 - security update

kernel: KVM: nVMX: missing IBPB when exiting from nested guest can lead to Spectre v2 attacks

A flaw was found in the KVM's Intel nested virtualization feature nVMX. Since L1 and L2 shared branch prediction modes guest-user and guest-kernel, KVM did not protect indirect branches in L1 from steering by a malicious agent in L2. This could allow a malicious nested guest to carry out Spectre ...
