In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm2-sessions: Fix out of range indexing in name_size
'name_size' does not have any range checks, and it just directly indexes
with TPM_ALG_ID, which could lead into memory corruption at worst.
Address the issue by only processing known values and returning -EINVAL for
unrecognized values.
Make also 'tpm_buf_append_name' and 'tpm_buf_fill_hmac_session' fallible so
that errors are detected before causing any spurious TPM traffic.
End also the authorization session on failure in both of the functions, as
the session state would be then by definition corrupted.

Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
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)
