Kernel security issues Dirty COW
There is a vulnerability that has been ongoing for years until a propperly patch has been released by Linux OS developers, as no one has mentioned this earlier I took the chance to do so.

You will have to update your kernel on Debian and CentOS versions by following these steps:
For debian based systems
for Redhat based systems
After those commans have been issued you will have to reboot your machine.
