It was discovered that the timer stats implementation in the Linux kernel allowed the discovery of a real PID value while inside a PID namespace. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-5967)

Wen Xu discovered that the XFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly track inode validations. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious XFS image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2018-13093)

Wen Xu discovered that the f2fs file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate metadata. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious f2fs image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2018-13097, CVE-2018-13100)

It was discovered that the Qualcomm Atheros 60GHz wireless driver in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow when validating the length of certain information elements, leading to a buffer overflow. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-5848)

Likang Luo discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3752)

It was discovered that the eventpoll (aka epoll) implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain error conditions when adding file descriptors, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-39634)

Jann Horn discovered a race condition in the Unix domain socket implementation in the Linux kernel that could result in a read-after-free. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-4083)
