    A flaw in the kernel Xen event handler can cause a deadlock with Xen console handling in unprivileged Xen     guests. (CVE-2023-34324)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel ipv4 stack. The socket buffer (skb) was     assumed to be associated with a device before calling __ip_options_compile, which is not always the case     if the skb is re-routed by ipvs. This issue may allow a local user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to crash     the system. (CVE-2023-42754)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    serial: 8250_port: Check IRQ data before use (CVE-2023-52567)
