An unprivileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly restrict RLIMIT_STACK size. A local attacker could use this in conjunction with another vulnerability to possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
