Package        : amd64-microcode
CVE ID         : CVE-2023-20593
Debian Bug     : 1041863

Tavis Ormandy discovered that under specific microarchitectural
circumstances, a vector register in "Zen 2" CPUs may not be written to 0
correctly. This flaw allows an attacker to leak register contents across
concurrent processes, hyper threads and virtualized guests.
