CVE-2017-17856

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions through 4.14.8

Description The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, potentially resulting in memory corruption, or possibly have other unspecified impacts. This is due to the lack of stack-pointer alignment enforcement in the kernel/bpf/verifier.c component of the Linux kernel.

Recommendations For Linux kernel versions through 4.14.8, update to a version that addresses the lack of stack-pointer alignment enforcement to prevent potential denial of service or memory corruption.
