CVE-2010-4347

CVE-2010-4347 affects the Linux kernel’s ACPI subsystem. The vulnerability arises in the debugfs interface (custom_method file) which, due to world-writable 0222 permissions, lets a local user place a custom ACPI method in interpreter tables via acpi_debugfs_init in drivers/acpi/debugfs.c. This c...
