CVE-2024-35875

CVE-2024-35875 addresses a security concern in the Linux kernel's handling of confidential computing CoCo environments. In these setups, the virtual machine VM host is untrusted and may attempt to compromise guest VMs. A critical component for maintaining security in such environments is a reliab...

CVE-2024-35875

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/coco: Require seeding RNG with RDRAND on CoCo systems There are few uses of CoCo that don't rely on working cryptography and hence a working RNG. Unfortunately, the CoCo threat model means that the VM host cannot be trusted a...
