Threats tagged 'ghsa-r7m4-wpp2-9f3x'

A race condition vulnerability in the Linux kernel's sys_prlimit64() function involving improper locking of task group leaders has been resolved. The issue arises from unsafe usage of task_lock(tsk->group_leader), which can lead to accessing freed task_struct objects or taking incorrect locks due to concurrent changes in group_leader. This can cause serious kernel-level integrity and availability issues.
