Kernel memory disclosure attacks are exploits that involve unauthorized access to the memory of a computer's kernel, which is the core component of the operating system. This breach allows attackers to access sensitive information or code residing in the kernel's memory, potentially leading to unauthorized control or manipulation of the system.
