Title:CVE-2018-5814 on Ubuntu 18.10 (cosmic) - medium.
Description:In the Linux Kernel before version 4.16.11, 4.14.43, 4.9.102, and 4.4.133, multiple race condition errors when handling probe, disconnect, and rebind operations can be exploited to trigger a use-after-free condition or a NULL pointer dereference by sending multiple USB over IP packets. Jakub Jirasek discovered that multiple use-after-free errors existed in the USB/IP implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
