**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) **Description** A flaw was found in the `filelock init` function in `fs/locks.c` of the Linux kernel. This issue can lead to host memory exhaustion due to memcg not limiting the number of Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) file locks. The exploitation of this flaw can cause a denial of service. **Recommendations** At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.

Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2021-3759
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) **Description** A memory overflow issue was found in the Linux kernel's ipc functionality of the memcg subsystem. This occurs when a user calls the `semget` function multiple times, creating semaphores, due to a lack of control over the allocation of resources. The flaw allows a local user to consume all available resources, leading to a denial of service. The primary threat posed by this issue is to system availability. **Recommendations** At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
