CVE-2014-4699 | BDVDB-2026-62598 Detail
Description#
The Linux kernel before 3.15.4 on Intel processors does not properly restrict use of a non-canonical value for the saved RIP address in the case of a system call that does not use IRET, which allows local users to leverage a race condition and gain privileges, or cause a denial of service (double fault), via a crafted application that makes ptrace and fork system calls.
Impact#
No impact statement in the source data.
Weaknesses#
No weakness recorded in the source data.
