A heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s Performance Events system component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.

A perf_event’s read_size can overflow, leading to an heap out-of-bounds increment or write in perf_read_group().

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
