kernel: powerpc/rtas: Keep MSR[RI] set when calling RTAS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/rtas: Keep MSRRI set when calling RTAS RTAS runs in real mode MSRDR and MSRIR unset and in 32-bit big endian mode MSRSF,LE unset. The change in MSR is done in enterrtas in a relatively complex way, since the MSR value cou...

DEBIAN-CVE-2019-15031

In the Linux kernel through 5.2.14 on the powerpc platform, a local user can read vector registers of other users' processes via an interrupt. To exploit the venerability, a local user starts a transaction via the hardware transactional memory instruction tbegin and then accesses vector registers...

DEBIAN-CVE-2015-8844

The signal implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5 on powerpc platforms does not check for an MSR with both the S and T bits set, which allows local users to cause a denial of service TM Bad Thing exception and panic via a crafted application...
