  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\nlsm: hold cred_guard_mutex for lsm_set_self_attr()\nJust as proc_pid_attr_write() already does before calling the LSM\nhook. This only matters for SELinux and AppArmor which check\nwhether the process is being ptraced and if so, whether to\nallow the transition.", "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Security Module (LSM). A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by leveraging an improper handling of a credential guard mutex in the `lsm_set_self_attr()` function. This oversight may allow the attacker to bypass security restrictions enforced by modules such as SELinux and AppArmor when a process is being debugged, potentially leading to unauthorized access or privilege escalation." ],
