Design/Logic Flaw

The mminit function in kernel/fork.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12.10 does not clear the -exefile member of a new process's mmstruct, allowing a local attacker to achieve a use-after-free or possibly have unspecified other impact by running a specially crafted program...

CVE-2017-17052

The CVE-2017-17052 entry affects the Linux kernel: the mm_init function in kernel/fork.c fails to clear the ->exe_file field of a new process’s mm_struct. This can enable a local attacker to trigger a use-after-free (and potential additional impact) by running a crafted program. Affected path ...
