Bug description:
Hello,
Recently, information was published on the vulnerability in AF_PACKET:
http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2017/Oct/44
We tested on cores:
- Linux uweb01 4.4.0-93-generic #116-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 11 21:17:51 UTC 2017
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- Linux uweb01 4.4.0-98-lowlatency #121-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 10
15:16:03 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The increase in the privileges inside the container is reproduced in 100%.
In some cases, the system hangs completely (without panic of the kernel).
