CVE-2017-11472

CVE-2017-11472 affects the Linux kernel via the acpi_ns_terminate() path in drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c. The flaw does not flush the operand cache, enabling a local user to dump kernel memory and bypass KASLR by crafting an ACPI table, with impact described for kernels before 4.12 (and through ...

CVE-2017-11473

CVE-2017-11473 describes a buffer overflow in the Linux kernel, specifically in arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c::mp_override_legacy_irq(), up to version 3.2. An attacker with local access can escalate privileges by presenting a crafted ACPI table. Exploitation is local and does not require user inter...
