They’re explaining that you need privileges to attack *other* users. I don’t
think anyone is disputing you can “attack” yourself.
I know, I know – we’ve had this discussion before, and nothing will
convince you that this isn’t a vulnerability 🙂

USN-5420-1: Vorbis vulnerabilities
It was discovered that Vorbis incorrectly handled certain files.
An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service,
or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2017-14160, CVE-2018-10392, CVE-2018-10393)
USN-5419-1: Rsyslog vulnerabilities
It was discovered that Rsyslog improperly handled certain invalid input. An
attacker could use this issue to cause Rsyslog to crash.
A Vulnerability in certain HP PC BIOS Could Allow for Local Arbitrary Code Execution
A vulnerability has been discovered in certain HP PC BIOS, which could allow for local arbitrary code execution. The BIOS is a firmware which is used to provide runtime services for operating systems and programs and to perform hardware initialization during the booting process. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for local arbitrary code execution with kernel level privileges. An attacker could then install programs; view; change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
