Subject: Special register buffer data sampling (CVE-2020-0543) on new mini system
Date: Sat, 27 Sep 2025 15:01:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <450b6b8a-0b44-4908-8e47-2cfed62d49df@ipfire.org> (raw)

Hi All,

Something I noticed. The new mini system is showing "Vulnerable - No microcode" for the "Special register buffer data sampling (CVE-2020-0543)" vulnerability.

However when I go and look at the Intel site for vulnerabilities versus CPU then for the Celeron J series and CVE-2020-0543 it shows Not Affected.

The vulnerability would need the attacker to have local access to the system and be authenticated, which would mean logged in as root so then you would have already lost big time as they could access anything but it just puzzled me why it is shown as Vulnerable. I presume that this comes from info from Intel that is in the kernel.

Regards,

Adolf.
