  "details" : [ "A flaw was found in the crypto subsystem of the Linux kernel before version kernel-4.15-rc4. The \"null skcipher\" was being dropped when each af_alg_ctx was freed instead of when the aead_tfm was freed. This can cause the null skcipher to be freed while it is still in use leading to a local user being able to crash the system or possibly escalate privileges.", "A flaw was found in the crypto subsystem that allowed an attacker \nto crash the system or possibly escalate privileges with a specially crafted program." ],
