kernel: broken permission and object lifetime handling for PTRACE_TRACEME

A flaw was found in the way PTRACETRACEME functionality was handled in the Linux kernel. The kernel's implementation of ptrace can inadvertently grant elevated permissions to an attacker who can then abuse the relationship between the tracer and the process being traced. This flaw could allow a...
