llvm-toolchain-13, llvm-toolchain-14, llvm-toolchain-15 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 23.04
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in LLVM Toolchain.

Software Description:
- llvm-toolchain-13: C, C++ and Objective-C compiler
- llvm-toolchain-14: C, C++ and Objective-C compiler
- llvm-toolchain-15: C, C++ and Objective-C compiler

Details:

It was discovered that LLVM Toolchain did not properly manage memory under
certain circumstances. If a user were tricked into opening a specially
crafted MLIR file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause LLVM
Toolchain to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-29932,
CVE-2023-29934, CVE-2023-29939)
