Linux kernel (NVIDIA) vulnerabilities
Published: Fri, 17 Apr 2026 09:55
Summary
Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Details
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. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - MIPS architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - ACPI drivers; - Network block device driver;
