CVE-2017-13695

La función acpi_ns_evaluate() en drivers/acpi/acpica/nseval.c en el kernel Linux en su versión 4.12.9 no vacía la caché operativa y provoca un volcado de pila de kernel, lo que permite que usuarios locales obtengan información sensible de la memoria del kernel y omitan el mecanismo de protección KASLR (en la versión 4.9 del kernel) mediante una tabla ACPI manipulada.

It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the perf subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Wei Fang discovered an integer overflow in the F2FS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that an information leak existed in the generic SCSI driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
