CVE-2017-16538 in Ubuntu

CVE-2017-16538

Priority

Description

drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/lmedm04.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11
allows local users to cause a denial of service (general protection fault
and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
USB device, related to a missing warm-start check and incorrect attach
timing (dm04_lme2510_frontend_attach versus dm04_lme2510_tuner).

Ubuntu-Description

It was discovered that the DM04/QQBOX USB driver in the Linux kernel did
not properly handle device attachment and warm-start. A physically
proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system
crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
