Details

It was discovered that the XFS file system implementation in the Linux
kernel did not properly perform metadata validation when mounting certain
images. An attacker could use this to specially craft a file system image
that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2023-2124)

Wei Chen discovered that the InfiniBand RDMA communication manager
implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds read
vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2023-2176)
