OpenShift must enable poisoning of SLUB/SLAB objects.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>By enabling poisoning of SLUB/SLAB objects, OpenShift can detect and identify use-after-free scenarios more effectively. The poisoned objects are marked as invalid or inaccessible, causing crashes or triggering alerts when an application attempts to access them. This helps identify and mitigate potential security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
