USN-7720-1 Not scored

linux vulnerabilities

It was discovered a race condition existed in the Unix domain socket implementation in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-0920) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - HID subsystem; - Media drivers; (CVE-2024-50302, CVE-2024-53104)
