| Revision Date: | 2018-08-30 | Version: | 1 | | Title: | CVE-2018-14619 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - medium. | | Description: | 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.
