Title:CVE-2017-12762 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (trusty) - medium.
Description:In /drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_net.c: A user-controlled buffer is copied into a local buffer of constant size using strcpy without a length check which can cause a buffer overflow. This affects the Linux kernel 4.9-stable tree, 4.12-stable tree, 3.18-stable tree, and 4.4-stable tree. It was discovered that a buffer overflow existed in the ioctl handling code in the ISDN subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
