Revision Date: | 2018-10-17 | Version: | 1 | Title: | CVE-2018-18386 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (trusty) - medium. | Description: | drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.11 allows local attackers (who are able to access pseudo terminals) to hang/block further usage of any pseudo terminal devices due to an EXTPROC versus ICANON confusion in TIOCINQ. Tetsuo Handa discovered a logic error in the TTY subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local attacker with access to pseudo terminal devices could use this to cause a denial of service.
