UBUNTU-CVE-2019-15790
Apport reads and writes information on a crashed process to /proc/pid with elevated privileges. Apport then determines which user the crashed process belongs to by reading /proc/pid through getpidinfo in data/apport. An unprivileged user could exploit this to read information about a privileged...
CVE-2019-2123
In execTransact of Binder.java in Android 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 8.0, 8.1, and 9, there is a possible local execution of arbitrary code in a privileged process due to a memory overwrite. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is no...
