CVE-2018-1000199

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux Kernel version 3.18

Description: The issue is related to a dangerous feature vulnerability in the modify user hw breakpoint() function, which can lead to a crash and possibly memory corruption. This can be exploited via local code execution and the ability to use ptrace. The vulnerability is associated with incorrect error handling.

Recommendations: For Linux Kernel version 3.18, consider applying the fix from git commit f67b15037a7a50c57f72e69a6d59941ad90a0f0f to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of ptrace to minimize the risk of exploitation.
