CVE-2016-2143

It was reported that on s390x, the fork of a process with four page table levels will cause memory corruption with a variety of symptoms. All processes are created with three level page table and a limit of 4TB for the address space. If the parent process has four page table levels with a limit o...

The vulnerability of the Windows operating system allows a perpetrator to obtain confidential information about the addresses of kernel objects and bypass the KASLR security mechanisms.

The vulnerability of Windows operating system’s kernel mode drivers is related to the lack of protection for privileged data. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker, operating locally, to obtain confidential information about kernel object addresses and bypass the KASLR protection...
