    CVE(s):
    CVE-2021-33909:
    fs/seq_file.c in the Linux kernel 3.16 through 5.13.x before 5.13.4 does not properly restrict seq buffer
    allocations, leading to an integer overflow, an Out-of-bounds Write, and escalation to root by an
    unprivileged user, aka CID-8cae8cd89f05.
    CVE-2020-12362
    Integer overflow in the firmware for some Intel(R) Graphics Drivers for Windows * before version
    26.20.100.7212 and before Linux kernel version 5.5 may allow a privileged user to potentially enable an
    escalation of privilege via local access.
    CVE-2021-3347
    An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.10.11. PI futexes have a kernel stack use-after-free
    during fault handling, allowing local users to execute code in the kernel, aka CID-34b1a1ce1458.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
