    CVE-2014-3153

    Published: 7 Jun 2014Last Modified: 16 Apr 2026

    Summary:

    Details: The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.
