USN-5560-2: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Zhenpeng Lin discovered that the network packet scheduler implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly remove all references to a route filter before freeing it in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service system crash or execute arbitrary code...

The vulnerability of the `sys_perf_event_open()` function in the Linux operating system’s perf subsystem allows a local attacker to gain root privileges.

The vulnerability of the sysperfeventopen function in the Linux operating system’s perf subsystem stems from the race condition within this subsystem. This condition can be exploited to initiate access to a freed memory area in the kernel. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a local attacker to...

NewStart CGSL CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05 : kernel Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2022-0026)

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has kernel packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - In the Linux kernel through 4.19.6, a local user could exploit a use-after-free in the ALSA driver by supplying a malicious USB Sound device with ze...
