Скачать или смотреть CVE-2024-1086: Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation Explained | CS50 Cybersecurity Final Project

In this final project for Harvard’s CS50 Introduction to Cybersecurity, I explore CVE-2024-1086, a recently discovered Linux kernel vulnerability that allows local privilege escalation.

🚨 The vulnerability lets attackers with standard user access gain full root control, making it a major security concern for servers, desktops, and embedded systems running vulnerable versions of the kernel.

🔍 This presentation includes:

A detailed breakdown of how the exploit works

A visual diagram of the attack flow

Real-world implications and affected systems

Defense strategies and course-related concepts

🎯 This project demonstrates key topics from the course such as privilege escalation, vulnerability management, system hardening, and zero-day attack response.
