∗∗∗ Is this CVSS 10 Linux Kernel vuln going to ruin your Christmas? ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Before Linux users worldwide get panties in a panicked bunch, there appears to be more positive news however: At first glance the vulnerability only appears to affect ksmbd, an in-kernel SMB file server that was merged to mainline in the Linux 5.15 release in August 2021; i.e. users running SMB servers via the much more widely deployed Samba, rather than ksmbd can more likely than not get back their mince pies unpurturbed.
