USN-7269-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Intel Microcode. This update provides
the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Original advisory details:
Ke Sun, Paul Grosen and Alyssa Milburn discovered that some Intel®
Processors did not properly implement Finite State Machines (FSMs) in
Hardware Logic. A local privileged attacker could use this issue to cause
a denial of service. (CVE-2024-31068)
It was discovered that some Intel® Processors with Intel® SGX did not
properly restrict access to the EDECCSSA user leaf function. A local
