Privilege Escalation

kernel-rt is vulnerable to privilege escalation attacks. The vulnerability exists as arch/x86/kernel/entry64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.17.5 does not properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment SS segment register, which allows local users to gain privileges by triggering an IRET...

CVE-2014-9090

CVE-2014-9090 affects the Linux kernel up to 3.17.4, where do_double_fault in arch/x86/kernel/traps.c mishandles SS fault conditions, allowing local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via modify_ldt (demonstrated by sigreturn_32 in linux-clock-tests). The issue was addressed by a patch li...

CVE-2014-9090

The dodoublefault function in arch/x86/kernel/traps.c in the Linux kernel through 3.17.4 does not properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment SS segment register, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic via a modifyldt system call, as demonstrated by sigreturn32 i...
