**CrackArmor — AppArmor local-privilege and kernel-execution vulnerabilities:** Qualys disclosed nine AppArmor flaws that can let unprivileged users bypass profile protections, escalate to root, execute code in the kernel, and cause DoS; the issues affect kernels since v4.11 and AppArmor-enabled distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE), researchers produced PoCs (not publicly released), and the report urges immediate kernel patching and monitoring of /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/ for unauthorized changes.
