CVE-2023-42667 [HIGH] Intel Microcode vulnerabilities
Title: Intel Microcode vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in Intel Microcode.
It was discovered that some Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors did not properly
isolate the stream cache. A local authenticated user could potentially use
this to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2023-42667)
It was discovered that some Intel® Processors did not properly isolate the
stream cache. A local authenticated user could potentially use this to
escalate their privileges. (CVE-2023-49141)
It was discovered that some Intel® Processors did not correctly transition
between the executive monitor and SMI transfer monitor (STM). A privileged
local attacker could use this to escalate their privileges.
