The Downfall vulnerability was discovered by the security researcher Daniel Moghimi, who publicly released information about the vulnerability in August 2023, after a year-long embargo period. [5] [6] Intel promised microcode updates to resolve the vulnerability. [1]
The Detection of Intrusions and Malware, and Vulnerability Assessment (DIMVA) event is an annual conference designed to serve as a general forum for discussing malware and the vulnerability of computing systems to attacks, advancing computer security through the exchange of ideas.
In August 2023, the NVD initially marked an integer overflow bug in old versions of cURL as a 9.8 out of 10 critical vulnerability. cURL lead developer Daniel Stenberg responded by saying this was not a security problem, the bug had been patched nearly 4 years prior, requested the CVE be rejected, and accused NVD of "scaremongering" and ...
Logo. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system provides a reference method for publicly known information-security vulnerabilities and exposures. [1] The United States' National Cybersecurity FFRDC, operated by The MITRE Corporation, maintains the system, with funding from the US National Cyber Security Division of the US Department of Homeland Security.

William D. Mathews from MIT found a vulnerability in a CTSS running on an IBM 7094.The standard text editor on the system was designed to be used by one user at a time, working in one directory, and so it created a temporary file with a constant name for all instantiations of the editor.
aCropalypse (CVE-2023-21036) was a vulnerability in Markup, a screenshot editing tool introduced in Google Pixel phones with the release of Android Pie. The vulnerability, discovered in 2023 by security researchers Simon Aarons and David Buchanan, allows an attacker to view an uncropped and unaltered version of a screenshot.
The vulnerability is known to affect Skylake and later processors from Intel and Zen-based processors from AMD. [54] In February 2023, a team of researchers at North Carolina State University uncovered a new code execution vulnerability called Spectre-HD, also known as "Spectre SRV" or "Spectre v6".
A vulnerability database (VDB) is a platform aimed at collecting, maintaining, and disseminating information about discovered computer security vulnerabilities.The database will customarily describe the identified vulnerability, assess the potential impact on affected systems, and any workarounds or updates to mitigate the issue.
