A critical heap-overflow vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2021-43267, in Linux Kernel can allow remote attackers to takeover vulnerable installs. A SentinelOne researcher discovered a critical remote code execution vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2021-43267, resides in the Transparent Inter Process Communication (TIPC) module of the Linux kernel. The flaw is a critical heap-overflow issue that could lead to […]
Researcher published an exploit code for a high-severity privilege escalation flaw (CVE-2021-3490) in Linux kernel eBPF on Ubuntu machines. The security researcher Manfred Paul of the RedRocket CTF team released the exploit code for a high-severity privilege escalation bug, tracked as CVE-2021-3490, in Linux kernel eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter). A local attacker could exploit the flaw to […]
An information disclosure issue in Linux Kernel allows KASLR bypass could be potentially exploited in attacks in the wild. An information disclosure flaw in the Linux kernel, tracked as CVE-2020-28588, could allow attackers to bypass the Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization bypass (KASLR). The Kernel Address space layout randomization (KASLR) is a computer security technique designed to prevent […]
Experts found five vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel, tracked as CVE-2021-26708, that could lead to local privilege escalation. Positive Technologies researcher Alexander Popov found five high severity vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel that could lead to local privilege escalation. The Linux kernel vulnerabilities are race conditions that reside in AF_VSOCK implementation, they were implicitly introduced in November […]
Experts discovered a privilege escalation vulnerability in the Linux Kernel, tracked as CVE-2019-11815, that affects the implementation of RDS over TCP. Experts discovered a memory corruption vulnerability in Linux Kernel that resides in the implementation of the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) over TCP. The vulnerability tracked as CVE-2019-11815 could lead to privilege escalation, it received a […]
Security experts have found a race condition vulnerability (CVE-2019-11815) in Linux Kernel Prior to 5.0.8 that expose systems to remote code execution. Linux systems based on kernel versions prior to 5.0.8 are affected by a race condition vulnerability leading to a use after free that could be exploited by hackers to get remote code execution. […]
Linux Kernel is affected by two denial-of-service (DoS) flaws, both vulnerabilities are NULL pointer deference issues Linux Kernel is affected by two denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerabilities, the issues impact Linux kernel 4.19.2 and previous versions. Both flaws are rated as Medium severity and are NULL pointer deference issues that can be exploited by a local attacker to trigger a DoS condition. […]
Cisco issued a security advisory on a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the Linux Kernel, patch it as soon as possible. On Friday, Cisco issued a security advisory on a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA). The vulnerability in the Linux Kernel, tracked as CVE-2017-15265, is due to a use-after-free memory […]
