DEBIAN-CVE-2019-3901

A race condition in perfeventopen allows local attackers to leak sensitive data from setuid programs. As no relevant locks in particular the credguardmutex are held during the ptracemayaccess call, it is possible for the specified target task to perform an execve syscall with setuid execution...

Linux kernel slab out-of-bounds write vulnerability

Linux kernel is the kernel used by Linux, the open source operating system released by the Linux Foundation in the United States. A security vulnerability exists in Linux kernel version 4.17.2 and earlier. The vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to cause a denial of service slab...

CVE-2018-12714

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.2. The filter parsing in kernel/trace/traceeventsfilter.c could be called with no filter, which is an N=0 case when it expected at least one line to have been read, thus making the N-1 index invalid. This allows attackers to cause a denial ...

kernel: Race condition between multiple sys_perf_event_open() calls

It was found that the original fix for CVE-2016-6786 was incomplete. There exist a race between two concurrent sysperfeventopen calls when both try and move the same pre-existing software group into a hardware context...

The vulnerability in the kernel/events/core.c component of the operating system allows a hacker to increase their privileges.

The vulnerability in the kernel/events/core.c component of the Linux operating system exists due to insufficient checking of resource states when resources can be shared among different processes. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a malicious actor to enhance their privileges by using a...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-9004
