Title:CVE-2017-16913 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - medium.
Description:The "stub_recv_cmd_submit()" function (drivers/usb/usbip/stub_rx.c) in the Linux Kernel before version 4.14.8, 4.9.71, and 4.4.114 when handling CMD_SUBMIT packets allows attackers to cause a denial of service (arbitrary memory allocation) via a specially crafted USB over IP packet. It was discovered that the USB over IP implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate CMD_SUBMIT packets. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (excessive memory consumption).
