An unprivileged user can exploit this issue to execute code with kernel privileges and obtain superuser (root) access to the system.
Recommendations Update to version 15.0-RELEASE-p7. Update to version 14.4-RELEASE-p3. Update to version 14.3-RELEASE-p12. Update to version 13.5-RELEASE-p13. Apply the available patch for versions older than the listed releases.
