"It was discovered that systemd incorrectly handled certain PIDFile
files. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to trick systemd
into killing privileged processes. This issue only affected Ubuntu
16.04 LTS. (CVE-2018-16888)

It was discovered that systemd incorrectly handled certain udevadm
trigger commands. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause systemd to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2019-20386)

Jann Horn discovered that systemd incorrectly handled services that
use the DynamicUser property. A local attacker could possibly use this
issue to access resources owned by a different service in the future.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-3843,
CVE-2019-3844)

Tavis Ormandy discovered that systemd incorrectly handled certain
Polkit queries. A local attacker could use this issue to cause systemd
to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
arbitrary code and escalate privileges. (CVE-2020-1712).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
