VulnCheck KEV: CVE-2018-14634

An integer overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's createelftables function. An unprivileged local user with access to SUID or otherwise privileged binary could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. Kernel versions 2.6.x, 3.10.x and 4.14.x are believed to be vulnerable...

Netfilter x_tables Heap OOB Write Privilege Escalation

A heap out-of-bounds write affecting Linux since v2.6.19-rc1 was discovered in net/netfilter/xtables.c. This allows an attacker to gain privileges or cause a DoS via heap memory corruption through user name space. Kernels up to 5.11 including are vulnerable. More information about vulnerable...

AZL-6522 CVE-2020-16120 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.10.78.1-1
