CVE-2026-45253

ptracePTSCREMOTE failed to properly validate parameters for the syscall2 and syscall2 meta-system calls. As a result, a user with the ability to debug a process may trigger arbitrary code execution in the kernel, even if the target process has no special privileges. The missing validation allows ...

The vulnerability of the Linux operating system allows a hacker to elevate their privileges to the level of the root user.

The vulnerability of the ptrace component in the Linux operating system is related to errors in the code. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a local attacker to elevate their privileges to the level of the root user by combining system calls for exec and ptrace...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-3534

arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.15.8 on the s390 platform does not properly restrict address-space control operations in PTRACEPOKEUSRAREA requests, which allows local users to obtain read and write access to kernel memory locations, and consequently gain privileges, via a...

kernel: x86_64: ptrace: sysret to non-canonical address

It was found that the Linux kernel's ptrace subsystem allowed a traced process' instruction pointer to be set to a non-canonical memory address without forcing the non-sysret code path when returning to user space. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially...
