The vulnerability of the Linux operating system’s kernel allows a hacker to increase their privileges or cause a service failure.

The vulnerability of the futexrequeue function in the Linux kernel/futex.c file is related to the lack of checks for the presence of two different futex addresses. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a local attacker to enhance their privileges by using the special command FUTEXREQUEUE, or to ga...
