[UPDATE] [medium] Linux Kernel: Multiple vulnerabilities allow Denial of Service
Actively exploited. At least one CVE in this advisory is listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog — exploitation has been observed in the wild. Treat remediation as urgent.
A local attacker can exploit multiple vulnerabilities in Linux Kernel to conduct a Denial of Service attack and achieve unspecified effects.

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-2024-531800.24% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 15% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2024-531820.22% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 13% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2024-531830.25% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 16% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2024-531840.25% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 16% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
