🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution70 %
Acceso local (AV:L) con privilegios (PR:L) sin interacción (UI:N) que permite OOB access en kernel module loading, causando crash/ejecución de código arbitrario. CWE-125 (out-of-bounds read) en kernel que puede llevar a ejecución.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
