An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 6.3.9. ksmbd does not validate the SMB request protocol ID, leading to an out-of-bounds read.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6222-1 - Jiasheng Jiang discovered that the HSA Linux kernel driver for AMD Radeon GPU devices did not properly validate memory allocation in certain situations, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered that the Intel i915 graphics driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a double-free. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Microsoft on Tuesday released updates to address a total of 130 new security flaws spanning its software, including six zero-day flaws that it said have been actively exploited in the wild. Of the 130 vulnerabilities, nine are rated Critical and 121 are rated Important in severity. This is in addition to eight flaws the tech giant patched in its Chromium-based Edge browser towards the end of

The company's Confidential Data Search technique relies on confidential computing to keep data secure even while it is in use.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel AMD Sensor Fusion Hub driver. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system.

Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in jQuery v.2.2.0 thru v.3.5.0 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the <options> element.

Dell BIOS contains an Improper Input Validation vulnerability. An unauthenticated physical attacker may potentially exploit this vulnerability to perform arbitrary code execution.

pam_krb5 authenticates a user by essentially running kinit with the password, getting a ticket-granting ticket (tgt) from the Kerberos KDC (Key Distribution Center) over the network, as a way to verify the password. However, if a keytab is not provisioned on the system, pam_krb5 has no way to validate the response from the KDC, and essentially trusts the tgt provided over the network as being valid. In a non-default FreeBSD installation that leverages pam_krb5 for authentication and does not have a keytab provisioned, an attacker that is able to control both the password and the KDC responses can return a valid tgt, allowing authentication to occur for any user on the system.

This article is the last in a six-part series (see my previous blog) presenting various usage models for Confidential Computing, a set of technologies designed to protect data in use. In this article, I explore interesting support technologies under active development in the confidential computing community. Kernel, hypervisor and firmware support Confidential Computing requires support from the host and guest kernel, the hypervisor, and firmware. At the time of writing, that support is uneven between platforms. Hardware vendors tend to develop and submit relatively large patch series, w
