CVE-2021-33034

What this means for your business

• It affects Linux Kernel. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
• Code showing how to exploit it has been published, but real attacks have not been confirmed.
• An attacker can use it only with access to the machine itself, with an ordinary user login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.
• FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.8% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 55% of all known flaws.

What to do

1. 1Check whether your company or your suppliers run Linux Kernel, and which version. The affected versions are listed further down this page.
2. 2If you do, apply the vendor's fix. A patch or vendor advisory has been published.
