Description
The issue affects the Linux kernel and various Linux distributions, including Debian GNU/Linux, Gentoo Linux, and openSUSE. It involves multiple vulnerabilities that can be exploited to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. Exploitation can be done remotely or locally, depending on the specific vulnerability and system configuration. The vulnerabilities may cause a denial of service, such as a system crash, and can be triggered by an infinite loop that activates a signal handler with a specific sequence of instructions.
