CVE-2026-97942

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's x86 instruction patching subsystem. A race condition between runtime instruction modification text poking and page attribute updates can cause virtual memory lookup failures in shared executable memory. A local user can trigger this issue during kernel modul...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: AMD CPUs affected versions not specified Description: Improper cleanup during the loading of AMD CPU microcode patches may allow an attacker with local administrator privileges to load malicious CPU microcode. This could lead to a loss of...

CVE-2025-0032: Incomplete Cleanup

Improper cleanup in AMD CPU microcode patch loading could allow an attacker with local administrator privilege to load malicious CPU microcode, potentially resulting in loss of integrity of x86 instruction execution...

CVE-2024-36347

Improper signature verification in AMD CPU ROM microcode patch loader may allow an attacker with local administrator privilege to load malicious microcode, potentially resulting in loss of integrity of x86 instruction execution, loss of confidentiality and integrity of data in x86 CPU privileged...

OpenSSL to Release Security Patch for Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability

The latest version of the OpenSSL library has been discovered as susceptible to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability on select systems. The issue has been identified in OpenSSL version 3.0.4, which was released on June 21, 2022, and impacts x64 systems with the AVX-512 instruction set. OpenSS...

CVE-2021-26339

A bug in AMD CPU’s core logic may allow for an attacker, using specific code from an unprivileged VM, to trigger a CPU core hang resulting in a potential denial of service. AMD believes the specific code includes a specific x86 instruction sequence that would not be generated by compilers...

Xen Asynchronous Modification EFLAGS.IF Clearing DoS (XSA-202)

According to its self-reported version number, the Xen hypervisor installed on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to a flaw in the x86 instruction emulator whenever a guest asynchronously modifies its instruction strea...

Xen CMPXCHG8B Emulation Information Disclosure (XSA-200)

According to its self-reported version number, the Xen hypervisor installed on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability due to a flaw in the x86 instruction CMPXCHG8B when handling prefixes. This is triggered because legac...

xen-kernel -- x86 PV guests may be able to mask interrupts

The Xen Project reports: Certain PV guest kernel operations page table writes in particular need emulation, and use Xen's general x86 instruction emulator. This allows a malicious guest kernel which asynchronously modifies its instruction stream to effect the clearing of EFLAGS.IF from the state...

x86 CMPXCHG8B emulation fails to ignore operand size override

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The x86 instruction CMPXCHG8B is supposed to ignore legacy operand size overrides; it only honors the REX.W override making it CMPXCHG16B. So, the operand size is always 8 or 16. When support for CMPXCHG16B emulation was added to the instruction emulator, this restriction on the...
