2024-09-13 CVE-2024-46697 Improper Initialization vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: ensure that nfsd4_fattr_args.context is zeroed out If nfsd4_encode_fattr4 ends up doing a "goto out" before we get to checking for the security label, then args.context will be set to uninitialized junk on the stack, which we'll then try to free. Initialize it early.

2024-09-02 CVE-2024-44947 Improper Initialization vulnerability in Linux Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fuse: Initialize beyond-EOF page contents before setting uptodate fuse_notify_store(), unlike fuse_do_readpage(), does not enable page zeroing (because it can be used to change partial page contents). So fuse_notify_store() must be more careful to fully initialize page contents (including parts of the page that are beyond end-of-file) before marking the page uptodate. The current code can leave beyond-EOF page contents uninitialized, which makes these uninitialized page contents visible to userspace via mmap(). This is an information leak, but only affects systems which do not enable init-on-alloc (via CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON=y or the corresponding kernel command line parameter).

2024-08-13 CVE-2023-20591 Improper Initialization vulnerability in AMD products
Improper re-initialization of IOMMU during the DRTM event may permit an untrusted platform configuration to persist, allowing an attacker to read or modify hypervisor memory, potentially resulting in loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
