[UPDATE] [high] Linux Kernel: Multiple vulnerabilities

CSIRTS triage

What

Multiple vulnerabilities allow a local attacker to conduct a Denial of Service attack and escalate privileges.

Who is affected

Local users of the Linux Kernel.

Urgency

Remediation is critical due to the high severity of potential Denial of Service and privilege escalation, although exploitation has not been reported.

Action

Apply the latest security updates to the Linux Kernel.

Exploitation outlook

EPSS (FIRST.org) estimates each CVE’s probability of exploitation in the next 30 days — here is the CSIRTS.com read on those numbers.

• Low exploitation riskCVE-2024-579500.17% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 7% of all scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-216870.23% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 14% of all scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-216880.18% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 8% of all scored CVEs.
• Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-216890.21% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 11% of all scored CVEs.
