==================================================================== CERT-Renater Note d'Information No. 2019/VULN144 _____________________________________________________________________ DATE : 15/05/2019 HARDWARE PLATFORM(S): INTEL. OPERATING SYSTEM(S) : INTEL firmware. ===================================================================== https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-00233.html _____________________________________________________________________ Microarchitectural Data Sampling Advisory Intel ID: INTEL-SA-00233 Advisory Category: Hardware Impact of vulnerability: Information Disclosure Severity rating: MEDIUM Original release: 05/14/2019 Last revised: 05/14/2019 Summary: A potential security vulnerability in CPUs may allow information disclosure. Intel is releasing Microcode Updates (MCU) updates to mitigate this potential vulnerability. Vulnerability Details: CVEID: CVE-2018-12126 Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling (MSBDS): Store buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVSS Base Score: 6.5 Medium CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N CVEID: CVE-2018-12127 Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling (MLPDS): Load ports on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVSS Base Score: 6.5 Medium CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N CVEID: CVE-2018-12130 Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling (MFBDS): Fill buffers on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVSS Base Score: 6.5 Medium CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N CVEID: CVE-2019-11091 Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory (MDSUM): Uncacheable memory on some microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable information disclosure via a side channel with local access. CVSS Base Score: 3.8 Low CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N Affected Products: A list of impacted products can be found here. Recommendation: Intel has worked with operating system vendors, equipment manufacturers, and other ecosystem partners to develop platform firmware and software updates that can help protect systems from these methods. This includes the release of updated Intel microprocessor microcode to our customers and partners. Status of available microcode can be found here. Public Github: https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files End users and systems administrators should check with their system manufacturers and system software vendors and apply any available updates as soon as practical.
