Title:CVE-2018-9415 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - medium.
Description:In driver_override_store and driver_override_show of bus.c, there is a possible double free due to improper locking. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android Versions: Android kernel Android ID: A-69129004 References: Upstream kernel. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the ARM Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA) driver in the Linux kernel that could result in a double free. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
