LSN-0086-1: Kernel Live Patch Security Notice
LSN-0086-1: Kernel Live Patch Security Notice It was discovered that a race condition existed in the network scheduling subsystem of the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.(CVE-2021-39713) Yiqi Sun and Kevin Wang discovered that the cgroups implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly restrict access to the cgroups v1 release_agent feature. A local attacker could use this to gain administrative privileges.(CVE-2022-0492) It was discovered that the network traffic control implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.(CVE-2022-1055) Bing-Jhong Billy Jheng discovered that the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel contained in integer overflow. A local attacker could use this [ more… ]
