ntpd will crash if the server is not NTS-enabled (no certificate) and it receives an NTS-enabled client request (mode 3).

By Deeba Ahmed The technical details of these findings will be unveiled at Black Hat USA on Wednesday, August 9, 2023. This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Researchers Jailbreak Tesla Vehicles, Gain Control Over Paid Features

The fwctl driver implements a state machine which is executed when a bhyve guest accesses certain x86 I/O ports. The interface lets the guest copy a string into a buffer resident in the bhyve process' memory. A bug in the state machine implementation can result in a buffer overflowing when copying this string. Malicious, privileged software running in a guest VM can exploit the buffer overflow to achieve code execution on the host in the bhyve userspace process, which typically runs as root, mitigated by the capabilities assigned through the Capsicum sandbox available to the bhyve process.

A set of carefully crafted ipv6 packets can trigger an integer overflow in the calculation of a fragment reassembled packet's payload length field. This allows an attacker to trigger a kernel panic, resulting in a denial of service.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5462-1 - Tavis Ormandy discovered that under specific microarchitectural circumstances, a vector register in AMD "Zen 2" CPUs may not be written to 0 correctly. This flaw allows an attacker to leak sensitive information across concurrent processes, hyper threads and virtualized guests.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5461-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6256-1 - 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.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5459-1 - Tavis Ormandy discovered that under specific microarchitectural circumstances, a vector register in "Zen 2" CPUs may not be written to 0 correctly. This flaw allows an attacker to leak register contents across concurrent processes, hyper threads and virtualized guests.
