CVE-2019-13272 is a vulnerability that affects Linux Kernel versions between 4.10 and 5.1.17. This vulnerability is related to the Linux Kernel's implementation of the "mnt" namespace, which is used to manage mount points and file system resources.
The vulnerability allows a user with access to a mount namespace to escalate their privileges to root. This can be achieved by mounting a new file system within the namespace and then performing a series of operations that trigger a use-after-free bug in the kernel.
This vulnerability was discovered by a security researcher and was assigned CVE-2019-13272.
