    fhandle: fix UAF due to unlocked ->mnt_ns read in may_decode_fh()

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fhandle: fix UAF due to unlocked ->mnt_ns read in may_decode_fh() may_decode_fh() accesses mount::mnt_ns without holding any locks; that means the mount can concurrently be unmounted, and the…

    perf/core: Detach event groups during remove_on_exec

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/core: Detach event groups during remove_on_exec perf_event_remove_on_exec() removes events by calling perf_event_exit_event(). For top-level events, this removes the event from the conte…
