Lots of privilege escalations these days. But are there that many multiuser Linux systems nowadays ? I'm under the impression the whole landscape is either servers or single-user desktops (and ofc Android phones).

The idea is that you can exploit a service hosted on Linux to run these.

Sounds like this one is in the same kernel modules as dirtyfrag, so the existing mitigations (if in place) are sufficient.
