Linux Kernel Vulnerabilities
The Linux Kernel is the core of the operating system. It is responsible for managing hardware resources and process scheduling. The Linux kernel code is open source and accessible to all. This means that vulnerabilities found in the kernel are reported and fixed immediately, as well as reviewed by many users who can help identify potential impacts on their systems.
Vulnerabilities in the Linux Kernel affect a wide range of products, including servers and personal computers running on a variety of platforms, cloud servers, hypervisors, routers, switches, printers, embedded devices, network appliances, cell phones, tablets and more.
The most common symptoms of a vulnerability in the Linux Kernel are reboots or application crashes. Additional symptoms may include abnormal device behavior or unexpected results from built-in diagnostics tools.
