A pair of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel disclosed this week expose major Linux operating systems that could let a hacker either gain root privileges on a compromised host or shut down the entire OS altogether. The two flaws – CVE-2021-33909 and CVE-2021-33910, respectively...they again highlighted flaws that can be found buried in the OSes and could lead to major headaches if exploited by bad actors...since there are so many different forks that fall under the Linux ecosystem Get on it right away. I tried to grow corn once but while the kernel was able to gain full root privileges this was a vulnerable host and a virus became a growing threat within the ecosystem, and which later enabled infiltration by attackers going by the handle of "raccoon."
