Title:CVE-2017-16532 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - low.
Description:The get_endpoints function in drivers/usb/misc/usbtest.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device. Andrey Konovalov discovered that the usbtest device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate endpoint metadata. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
