The Linux kernel is prone to a local denial-of-service vulnerability that affects the Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM).
|
|
|
|
Attackers with local access to a guest operating system can exploit this issue to crash the host operating system.
|
|
|
|
Successful exploits will deny service to legitimate users. Given the nature of this issue, attackers may also be able to run arbitrary code, but this has not been confirmed.
|
|
|
|
The following example command is available:
|
|
|
|
cat /dev/port |
