Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2016-04-27 17:00 – Updated: 2024-08-06 08:29
VLAI?
Summary
The hub_activate function in drivers/usb/core/hub.c in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5 does not properly maintain a hub-interface data structure, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by unplugging a USB hub device.
Severity ?
No CVSS data available.
