USN-8575-3: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
AI Summary
Maxim Suhanov discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate file name length in certain situations, leading to an out-of-bounds read. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious NTFS image that, when mounted and operated on, could expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2023-45896) It was discovered that some AMD processors did not properly clear data in the floating point divider unit during speculative execution.
