Posted: Mon Apr 21, 2025 1:15 pm
A security vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2024-53141, has recently come to light in the Linux kernel’s ipset component.
This flaw enables out-of-bounds (OOB) write on the kernel heap, which threat actors can exploit to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
Security researchers have now released a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit, escalating concerns about possible real-world attacks on unpatched systems.
