    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service, or information     leak.

    CVE-2022-2196

        A regression was discovered the KVM implementation for Intel CPUs,         affecting Spectre v2 mitigation for nested virtualisation.  When         KVM was used as the L0 hypervisor, an L2 guest could exploit this         to leak sensitive information from its L1 hypervisor.

    CVE-2022-3424

        Zheng Wang and Zhuorao Yang reported a flaw in the SGI GRU driver         which could lead to a use-after-free.  On systems where this driver         is used, a local user can explit this for denial of service (crash         or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege escalation.

        This driver is not enabled in Debian's official kernel         configurations.

    CVE-2022-3707

        Zheng Wang reported a flaw in the i915 graphics driver's         virtualisation (GVT-g) support that could lead to a double-free.
        On systems where this feature is used, a guest can exploit this         for denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for         privilege escalation.

    CVE-2022-4129

        Haowei Yan reported a race condition in the L2TP protocol         implementation which could lead to a null pointer dereference.  A         local user could exploit this for denial of service (crash).

    CVE-2022-4379

        Xingyuan Mo reported a flaw in the NFSv4.2 inter server to         server copy implementation which could lead to a use-after-free.

        This feature is not enabled in Debian's official kernel         configurations.

    CVE-2023-0045

        Rodrigo Branco and Rafael Correa De Ysasi reported that when a         user-space task told the kernel to enable Spectre v2 mitigation         for it, the mitigation was not enabled until the task was next         rescheduled.  This might be exploitable by a local or remote         attacker to leak sensitive information from such an application.

    CVE-2023-0458

        Jordy Zimmer and Alexandra Sandulescu found that getrlimit() and         related system calls were vulnerable to speculative execution         attacks such as Spectre v1.  A local user could explot this to         leak sensitive information from the kernel.

    CVE-2023-0459

        Jordy Zimmer and Alexandra Sandulescu found a regression in         Spectre v1 mitigation in the user-copy functions for the amd64         (64-bit PC) architecture.  Where the CPUs do not implement SMAP or         it is disabled, a local user could exploit this to leak sensitive         information from the kernel.  Other architectures may also be         affected.

    CVE-2023-0461

        slipper reported a flaw in the kernel's support for ULPs (Upper         Layer Protocols) on top of TCP that can lead to a double-free when         using kernel TLS sockets.  A local user can exploit this for         denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for         privilege escalation.

        Kernel TLS is not enabled in Debian's official kernel         configurations.

    CVE-2023-1073

        Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the HID (Human         Interface Device) subsystem.  An attacker able to insert and         remove USB devices might be able to use this to cause a denial of         service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to run arbitrary         code in the kernel.

    CVE-2023-1074

        Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the SCTP         protocol implementation which can lead to a memory leak.  A local         user could exploit this to cause a denial of service (resource         exhaustion).

    CVE-2023-1076

        Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the TUN/TAP         network driver, which results in all TUN/TAP sockets being marked         as belonging to user ID 0 (root).  This may allow local users to         evade local firewall rules based on user ID.

    CVE-2023-1077

        Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the task         scheduler.  A local user might be able to exploit this to cause a         denial of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for         privilege escalation.

    CVE-2023-1078

        Pietro Borrello reported a type confusion flaw in the RDS protocol         implementation.  A local user could exploit this to cause a denial         of service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly for privilege         escalation.

    CVE-2023-1079

        Pietro Borrello reported a race condition in the hid-asus HID         driver which could lead to a use-after-free.  An attacker able to         insert and remove USB devices can use this to cause a denial of         service (crash or memory corruption) or possibly to run arbitrary         code in the kernel.

    CVE-2023-1118
