Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in net/can/bcm.c in can: bcm, where an unprivileged local user can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code within the kernel, which leads to a local privilege escalation (LPE). This allows the attacker to gain root privileges and take full control of the affected system.
