The post Chipmaker Patch Tuesday: Intel, AMD Fix Over 80 Vulnerabilities Combined appeared first on SecurityWeek.","Intel and AMD have collectively addressed more than 80 vulnerabilities in their latest patch releases. Intel's advisories cover 72 flaws, with high-severity issues found in WiFi software, Xeon processors, and other components, leading to privilege escalation, DoS, and code execution. AMD's updates address a dozen vulnerabilities across five advisories, including critical flaws in the Vitis development environment and arbitrary code execution risks in Ryzen Master Utility and SEV-SNP.","Intel and AMD release patches for over 80 combined vulnerabilities, including high-severity flaws.","Intel and AMD on Tuesday announced patches for a total of more than 80 vulnerabilities across their products. Intel has published 42 new advisories covering 72 vulnerabilities. The company patched several high-severity flaws in PROSet\u002FWireless WiFi software that could allow an attacker to escalate privileges or conduct a denial-of-service (DoS) attack. In addition, high-severity vulnerabilities have been addressed in Xeon processors (privilege escalation), Data Center Attestation Primitives (information disclosure), Alias Checking Trusted Module for Xeon processors (privilege escalation), TDX (privilege escalation), Active Management Technology (DoS), PROSet\u002FWireless WiFi software (local code execution, privilege escalation and DoS), and CSME and SPS (privilege escalation). Medium-severity issues have been patched by Intel in Transfer Learning Tool, Extension for PyTorch, LLM-on-Ray, Gaudi Container Runtime, Performance Counter Monitor, vLLM Hardware Plugin for Gaudi, Approximate Bayesian Inference Framework, Hardware Aware Automated Machine Learning, EquiTriton Software, and Workload Services Framework products. Medium vulnerabilities have also been resolved in LLM Scaler, LLM Library and oneCCL Bindings for PyTorch, TDX DCAP and Guest, AI Containers, Cluster Management Toolkit for Kubernetes, Open VKL, Extension for TensorFlow, NPU Drivers, Neural Compressor, Battery Life Diagnostic Tool, Xeon and Core Ultra, UEFI Reference BIOS, AI Reference Models, CSME, and SPS products.

Intel has fixed a low-severity vulnerability in Slim Bootloader. AMD published five new advisories on Tuesday to inform customers about a dozen vulnerabilities. One advisory describes five high-severity issues in the Vitis development environment. Their exploitation could lead to private key disclosure, privilege escalation, and arbitrary code execution. Arbitrary code execution issues have also been addressed by AMD in Ryzen Master Utility, SEV-SNP, and Power Design Manager. Earlier this month, the chipmaker informed customers about a Safe RET interrupt vulnerability and a recently disclosed SEV attack method dubbed PowerHooK.
