CVE-2021-20226 – Linux Kernel io_uring Use-After-Free Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-20226
04 Jan 2021 — A use-after-free flaw was found in the io_uring in Linux kernel, where a local attacker with a user privilege could cause a denial of service problem on the system The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object by not incrementing the file reference counter while in use. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data integrity, confidentiality and system availability.

CVE-2020-29569
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-29569
15 Dec 2020 — An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.10.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x. The Linux kernel PV block backend expects the kernel thread handler to reset ring->xenblkd to NULL when stopped. However, the handler may not have time to run if the frontend quickly toggles between the states connect and disconnect. As a consequence, the block backend may re-use a pointer after it was freed. A misbehaving guest can trigger a dom0 crash by continuously connecting / disconnecting a block frontend. • https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2021/02/msg00018.html • CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2020-27777 – kernel: powerpc: RTAS calls can be used to compromise kernel integrity
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2020-27777
15 Dec 2020 — A flaw was found in the way RTAS handled memory accesses in userspace to kernel communication. On a locked down (usually due to Secure Boot) guest system running on top of PowerVM or KVM hypervisors (pseries platform) a root like local user could use this flaw to further increase their privileges to that of a running kernel. Se encontró un fallo en la manera en que RTAS manejaba los accesos a la memoria en el espacio de usuario para la comunicación del kernel.

11 Dec 2020 — A use-after-free flaw was found in kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c in Linux kernel (before 5.10-rc1). There was a race problem in trace_open and resize of cpu buffer running parallely on different cpus, may cause a denial of service problem (DOS). This flaw could even allow a local attacker with special user privilege to a kernel information leak threat.
