Though the cybersecurity vendor has since reverted the update, chaos continues as companies continue to struggle to get back up and running.

A defective CrowdStrike kernel driver sent computers around the globe into a reboot death spiral, taking down air travel, hospitals, banks, and more with it. Here’s how that’s possible.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6898-3 - Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6895-3 - It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the HugeTLB file system component of the Linux Kernel contained a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability. A privileged attacker could possibly use this to to cause a denial of service.

Businesses across the world have been hit by widespread disruptions to their Windows workstations stemming from a faulty update pushed out by cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. "CrowdStrike is actively working with customers impacted by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts," the company's CEO George Kurtz said in a statement. "Mac and Linux hosts are not impacted. This is

### Impact The two gRPC ports 7070 and 7071, are not bound to [localhost](http://localhost/) by default, so when TorchServe is launched, these two interfaces are bound to all interfaces. Customers using PyTorch inference Deep Learning Containers (DLC) through Amazon SageMaker and EKS are not affected. ### Patches This issue in TorchServe has been fixed in [#3083](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/3083). TorchServe release 0.11.0 includes the fix to address this vulnerability. ### References * [#3083](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/3083) * [TorchServe release v0.11.0](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/releases/tag/v0.11.0) Thank Kroll Cyber Risk for for responsibly disclosing this issue.

### Impact TorchServe's check on allowed_urls configuration can be by-passed if the URL contains characters such as ".." but it does not prevent the model from being downloaded into the model store. Once a file is downloaded, it can be referenced without providing a URL the second time, which effectively bypasses the allowed_urls security check. Customers using PyTorch inference Deep Learning Containers (DLC) through Amazon SageMaker and EKS are not affected. ### Patches This issue in TorchServe has been fixed by validating the URL without characters such as ".." before downloading: [#3082](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/3082). TorchServe release 0.11.0 includes the fix to address this vulnerability. ### References * [#3082](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/3082) * [TorchServe release v0.11.0](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/releases/tag/v0.11.0) Thank Kroll Cyber Risk for for responsibly disclosing this issue.

Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered security shortcomings in SAP AI Core cloud-based platform for creating and deploying predictive artificial intelligence (AI) workflows that could be exploited to get hold of access tokens and customer data. The five vulnerabilities have been collectively dubbed SAPwned by cloud security firm Wiz. "The vulnerabilities we found could have allowed attackers

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the netfilter connection tracker for netlink in the Linux kernel did not properly perform reference counting in some error conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). Various other issues were also addressed.

Secure Boot technology is part of Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) specification. It is a useful and powerful tool which can be used to improve boot time security of an operating system by only allowing trusted code to be executed on that system. The technology is not new—it was part of UEFI specification since v2.0 (2006), and it is extensively used by x86 hardware vendors today. In the cloud world, however, the technology only became available fairly recently:Google made Shielded VMs generally available in April, 2019Microsoft announced Trusted Launch general availability in No
