Ubuntu Linux 6.8 contains AppArmor SAUCE patches which fail to acquire a lock when modifying a linked list. An unprivileged local user could trigger the race condition that can lead to a use-after-free (UAF) and, theoretically, arbitrary code execution.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in Ubuntu Linux 6.8 kernel stems from an AppArmor SAUCE patch that omits proper locking when modifying a linked list, enabling a race condition that can be exploited by an unprivileged local user. Successful exploitation leads to a use-after-free condition with theoretical arbitrary code execution in kernel context. …
