A race condidition in systemd-coredump allows a local attacker to crash a SUID program and gain read access to the resulting core dump
An unprivileged attacker can craft a user-space process with a malicious ELF binary containing an out-of-range shlink field. When root-level dtrace attaches to -- or instruments -- that process (via dtrace -p , pid probes, or USDT), the ELF parser reads heap memory beyond the allocated section cache array without any bounds check. This results in an uninitialized/out-of-bounds heap read that can cause a NULL pointer dereference crash of the dtrace process (DoS), or -- depending on heap layout -- a read-then-use of a garbage pointer controlled by adjacent allocations, providing a foothold toward further exploitation in a privileged context.
An unprivileged attacker can reliably trigger a crash of the dtrace process with a malicious ELF binary due to an integer Divide-by-Zero in Pbuildfilesymtab()
A DTrace component, dtprobed, allows arbitrary file creation through crafted USDT provider names.
A bug that allows linux kernel lockdown to be trivially bypassed using IMA.
A flaw was found in kernel/debug/debugcore.c in the Linux kernel in the lockdown mode. In this flaw, an attacker with local access could trigger the debugger, bypass lockdown and write anonymously.
In this flaw, KGDB and KDB allow read and write access to kernel memory, and thus should not be allowed during lockdown. An attacker with access to a serial port could trigger the debugger and use it to bypass lockdown.

The code in UEK6 U3 was missing an appropiate file descriptor count to be missing. This resulted in a use count error that allowed a file descriptor to a socket to be closed and freed while it was still in use by another portion of the kernel. An attack with local access can operate on the socket, and cause a denial of service. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
In the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK), the RDS module in UEK has two setsockopt(2) options, RDSCONNRESET and RDS6CONNRESET, that are not re-entrant. A malicious local user with CAPNETADMIN can use this to crash the kernel. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
