USN-4948-1: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities

Ryota Shiga discovered that the eBPF implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify that a BPF program only reserved as much memory for a ring buffer as was allocated. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash or execute arbitrary code. CVE-2021-3489...
