Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-9088-03 - An update for edk2 is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Issues addressed include a denial of service vulnerability.
**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires that an attacker send a malicious link to the victim via email, or that they convince the user to click the link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or Instant Messenger message. In the worst-case email attack scenario, an attacker could send a specially crafted email to the user without a requirement that the victim open, read, or click on the link. This could result in the attacker executing remote code on the victim's machine. When multiple attack vectors can be used, we assign a score based on the scenario with the higher risk (UI:N).
Ubuntu Security Notice 7100-1 - Supraja Sridhara, Benedict Schlüter, Mark Kuhne, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that the Confidential Computing framework in the Linux kernel for x86 platforms did not properly handle 32-bit emulation on TDX and SEV. An attacker with access to the VMM could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

OpenSSL is a popular cryptographical toolkit with more than 20 years of history. For a long time, the only way to extend it was by using an "engine", which defines how a cryptographic algorithm is computed. This could include hardware devices and even new algorithms not included in the main library, but as OpenSSL evolved it became evident that the engines API was limiting. A new pluggable system, called a "provider", was introduced.What is a providerA provider, in OpenSSL terms, is a unit of code that provides one or more implementations of cryptographic operations, making new algorithms avai
