| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions through 4.13.11
Description
The issue is related to a function in the Linux kernel, specifically
asix suspend in drivers/net/usb/asix devices.c, which is associated with pointer dereference errors. This can be exploited by a local attacker using a crafted USB device, potentially leading to a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or other unspecified impacts.Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions through 4.13.11, update to a version later than 4.13.11 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of USB devices to minimize the risk of exploitation.
