And another, again from phoronix: potential privilege escalation or
denial of service by an unprivileged local user on (at least) gen 8/9
graphics hardware (Broadwell to pre Cannonlake / Icelake),
CVE-2019-015{4,5}.
Commits merged in trunk:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=100d46bd72ec689a5582c2f5f4deadc5bcb92d60

A quick look suggests these fixes are not yet in any released kernels.

Whilst all mushrooms are edible, the trick is to eat only those which

recommends you play safe and eat beans on toast.
