CVE-2016-4558

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7)—💥 Exploit

El subsistema BPF en el kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.5.5 no maneja correctamente las cuentas de referencia, lo que permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (uso después de liberación de memoria) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de una aplicación manipulada en (1) un sistema con más de 32 GB de memoria, relacionado con el programa de cuentas de referencia o (2) un sistema de 1 Tb, relacionado con el mapa de cuentas de referencia.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

💥 Exploits públicos

Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
