Description Oleg Sushchenko 2026-10-22 17:13:52 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

The workaround for XSA-433 (Zenbleed, CVE-2023-20593) was later
re-worked to better integrate with other manipulations of the same MSR.
In this rework an inverted conditional was introduced, resulting in the
workaround to not be applied when needed and vice versa.
