CVE-2024-24853 SUSE Linux Micro 6.0:ucode-intel-20260210-1.1 important To install this SUSE Security Update use the SUSE recommended installation methods like YaST online_update or "zypper patch". https://www.suse.com/support/update/announcement/2026/suse-su-202620522-1/ https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-24853.html CVE-2024-24853 https://bugzilla.suse.com/1229129 SUSE Bug 1229129 Improper handling of values in the microcode flow for some Intel(R) Processor Family may allow an escalation of privilege. Startup code and smm adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present with special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (low), integrity (low) and availability (none) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (low), integrity (low) and availability (none) impacts.
