The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not available. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 4.11.1, update to version 4.11.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
sanity check raw super function until a patch is available.Correção
