EPSS
Percentile
10.1%
The kernel is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS). A missing validation check was found in the bcm_release() and raw_release() functions in the Linux kernel’s Controller Area Network (CAN) implementation. This could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service.
