CVE-2010-4347

Publication date 22 December 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

High

Why this priority?

The ACPI subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36.2 uses 0222 permissions for the debugfs custom_method file, which allows local users to gain privileges by placing a custom ACPI method in the ACPI interpreter tables, related to the acpi_debugfs_init function in drivers/acpi/debugfs.c.
