python: local privilege escalation via the multiprocessing forkserver start method

A vulnerability found in Python. The flaw occurs when used with the forkserver start method on Linux. The Python multiprocessing library allows Python pickles to be deserialized from any user in the same machine's local network namespace in many system configurations, which means any user on the...

F5 Big-IP Create Admin User

This creates a local user with a username/password and root-level privileges. Note that a root-level account is not required to do this, which makes it a privilege escalation issue. Note that this is pretty noisy, since it creates a user account and creates log files and such. Additionally, most ...

kernel: use-after-free and memory errors in ext4 when mounting and operating on a corrupted image

A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dxinsertblock in the Linux kernel’s filesystem sub-component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service...

kernel: NULL pointer dereference in udf_expand_file_adinicbdue() during writeback

A NULL pointer dereference was found in the Linux kernel’s UDF file system functionality in the way the user triggers the udffilewriteiter function for a malicious UDF image. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system...

hw: Intel: Improper restriction in memory buffer in graphics drivers cause escalation of privilege

A flaw has been identified in the Linux kernel i915 graphics driver that improperly restricts operations within the bounds of a memory buffer. This issue could allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system...

kernel: race condition in snd_pcm_hw_free leading to use-after-free

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s sound subsystem in the way a user triggers concurrent calls of PCM hwparams.
