CVE-2021-3679

Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—💥 PoC

Se encontró una falta de recursos de CPU en la funcionalidad tracing module del kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 5.14-rc3 en la manera en que el usuario usa el búfer de anillo de rastreo de una manera específica. Sólo usuarios locales privilegiados (con capacidad CAP_SYS_ADMIN) podían usar este fallo para privar de recursos causando una denegación de servicio

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.

⚠️ Las pruebas de concepto de GitHub no están verificadas: algunas son falsas o contienen malware. No las ejecute nunca fuera de un laboratorio aislado.
