Josh Eads, Kristoffer Janke, Eduardo Vela Nava, Tavis Ormandy, and Matteo
Rizzo discovered that some AMD Zen processors did not properly verify the
signature of CPU microcode. This flaw is known as EntrySign. A privileged
attacker could possibly use this issue to cause load malicious CPU
microcode causing loss of integrity and confidentiality. (CVE-2024-36347)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
