Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

CVE-2024-35893 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade RHEL:8 perf to version 0:4.18.0-553.16.1.el8_10 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2024:5101.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perf package and not the perf package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_skbmod: prevent kernel-infoleak
syzbot found that tcf_skbmod_dump() was copying four bytes from kernel stack to user space [1].
The issue here is that 'struct tc_skbmod' has a four bytes hole.
We need to clear the structure before filling fields.
