The vulnerability of the mm/gup.c component in the Linux operating system allows a hacker to increase their privileges.

The vulnerability of the mm/gup.c component in the Linux operating system exists due to insufficient checking of resource status when it can be used concurrently. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker, operating locally, to enhance their privileges by improperly using the Copy-Write CO...

kernel: mm: privilege escalation via MAP_PRIVATE COW breakage

A race condition was found in the way the Linux kernel's memory subsystem handled the copy-on-write COW breakage of private read-only memory mappings. An unprivileged, local user could use this flaw to gain write access to otherwise read-only memory mappings and thus increase their privileges on...

F5 Networks BIG-IP : Linux privilege-escalation vulnerability (K10558632) (Dirty COW)

Race condition in mm/gup.c in the Linux kernel 2.x through 4.x before 4.8.3 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging incorrect handling of a copy-on-write COW feature to write to a read-only memory mapping, as exploited in the wild in October 2016, aka 'Dirty COW.' CVE-2016-5195...
