Full title: Linux Kernel 4.4 (Ubuntu 16.04) - BPF Local Privilege Escalation (Metasploit) 
Category: local exploits
Platform: linux
Linux kernel versions 4.4 and above where CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL and kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl is not set to 1 allow for BPF to be abused for privilege escalation. Ubuntu 16.04 has all of these conditions met.
