In this video we continue the "Linux Privilege Escalation" series.
This time the focus will be on using kernel exploits in order to achieve privilege escalation. This method is not particularly advisable, as it usually creates a lot of noise in the system, and it can even crash the system. However, it is definitely a way to become root in a linux system when the kernel version is vulnerable to known exploits and therefore it is important to consider and be aware of.
Thank you very much!
