The ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a USB device without both a master and a slave interface.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - kernel: out of bounds read in drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/technisat-usb2.c (CVE-2019-15505)

  - kernel: buffer-overflow hardening in WiFi beacon validation code. (CVE-2019-16746)

  - block/scsi_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.8 does not properly consider the SCSI device class during     authorization of SCSI commands, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via an     SG_IO ioctl call that leverages overlapping opcodes. (CVE-2012-4542)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),     the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel     handles the basic functions of the operating system:
    memory allocation, process allocation, device input and     output, etc.Security Fix(es):** DISPUTED ** Multiple     integer overflows in the lzo1x_decompress_safe function     in lib/lzo/lzo1x_decompress_safe.c in the LZO     decompressor in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 allow     context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of     service (memory corruption) via a crafted Literal Run.
    NOTE: the author of the LZO algorithms says 'the Linux     kernel is *not* affected media hype.'(CVE-2014-4608)A     certain backport in the TCP Fast Open implementation     for the Linux kernel before 3.18 does not properly     maintain a count value, which allow local users to     cause a denial of service (system crash) via the Fast     Open feature, as demonstrated by visiting the     chrome://flags/#enable-tcp-fast-open URL when using     certain 3.10.x through 3.16.x kernel builds, including     longterm-maintenance releases and ckt (aka Canonical     Kernel Team) builds.(CVE-2015-3332)An elevation of     privilege vulnerability in the kernel scsi driver.
    Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID     A-65023233.(CVE-2017-13168)An issue was discovered in     drivers/i2c/i2c-core-smbus.c in the Linux kernel before     4.14.15. There is an out of bounds write in the     function i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated.(CVE-2017-18551)An     issue was discovered in net/ipv6/ip6mr.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.11. By setting a specific socket     option, an attacker can control a pointer in kernel     land and cause an inet_csk_listen_stop general     protection fault, or potentially execute arbitrary code     under certain circumstances. The issue can be triggered     as root (e.g., inside a default LXC container or with     the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability) or after namespace     unsharing. This occurs because sk_type and protocol are     not checked in the appropriate part of the ip6_mroute_*     functions. NOTE: this affects Linux distributions that     use 4.9.x longterm kernels before     4.9.187.(CVE-2017-18509)An issue was discovered in the     Linux kernel before 4.14.11. A double free may be     caused by the function allocate_trace_buffer in the     file kernel/trace/trace.c.(CVE-2017-18595)An issue was     discovered in the Linux kernel through 4.17.10. There     is a NULL pointer dereference and panic in     hfsplus_lookup() in fs/hfsplus/dir.c when opening a     file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+     filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is     mounted read-only without a metadata     directory.(CVE-2018-14617)An issue was discovered in     write_tpt_entry in drivers/infiniband/hw/cxgb4/mem.c in     the Linux kernel through 5.3.2. The cxgb4 driver is     directly calling dma_map_single (a DMA function) from a     stack variable. This could allow an attacker to trigger     a Denial of Service, exploitable if this driver is used     on an architecture for which this stack/DMA interaction     has security relevance.(CVE-2019-17075)Double free     vulnerability in the snd_usbmidi_create function in     sound/usb/midi.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows     physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of     service (panic) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via vectors involving an invalid USB     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2384)fsamespace.c in the Linux     kernel through 3.16.1 does not properly restrict     clearing MNT_NODEV, MNT_NOSUID, and MNT_NOEXEC and     changing MNT_ATIME_MASK during a remount of a bind     mount, which allows local users to gain privileges,     interfere with backups and auditing on systems that had     atime enabled, or cause a denial of service (excessive     filesystem updating) on systems that had atime disabled     via a 'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5207)fs/overlayfs/dir.c in the     OverlayFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel     before 4.6 does not properly verify the upper dentry     before proceeding with unlink and rename system-call     processing, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (system crash) via a rename system call that     specifies a self-hardlink.(CVE-2016-6197)In the Linux     kernel before 4.1.4, a buffer overflow occurs when     checking userspace params in     drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c. The maximum size     for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the userspace     API. However, the code allows larger values such as     23.(CVE-2015-9289)In the Linux kernel through 5.3.2,     cfg80211_mgd_wext_giwessid in net/wireless/wext-sme.c     does not reject a long SSID IE, leading to a Buffer     Overflow.(CVE-2019-17133)Insufficient access control in     the Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software driver     before version 21.10 may allow an unauthenticated user     to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent     access.(CVE-2019-0136)Linux distributions that have not     patched their long-term kernels with     https://git.kernel.org/linus/a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb3     71a9fa3c5c3c86 (committed on April 14, 2015). This     kernel vulnerability was fixed in April 2015 by commit     a87938b2e246b81b4fb713edb371a9fa3c5c3c86 (backported to     Linux 3.10.77 in May 2015), but it was not recognized     as a security threat. With     CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE enabled, and a     normal top-down address allocation strategy,     load_elf_binary() will attempt to map a PIE binary into     an address range immediately below mm->mmap_base.
    Unfortunately, load_elf_ binary() does not take account     of the need to allocate sufficient space for the entire     binary which means that, while the first PT_LOAD     segment is mapped below mm->mmap_base, the subsequent     PT_LOAD segment(s) end up being mapped above     mm->mmap_base into the are that is supposed to be the     'gap' between the stack and the     binary.(CVE-2017-1000253)Race condition in the     sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function in     drivers/s390/char/sclp_ctl.c in the Linux kernel before     4.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information     from kernel memory by changing a certain length value,     aka a 'double fetch'     vulnerability.(CVE-2016-6130)rtl_p2p_noa_ie in drivers     et/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/ps.c in the Linux kernel     through 5.3.6 lacks a certain upper-bound check,     leading to a buffer     overflow.(CVE-2019-17666)sound/core/timer.c in the     Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize certain r1     data structures, which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information from kernel stack memory via     crafted use of the ALSA timer interface, related to the     (1) snd_timer_user_ccallback and (2)     snd_timer_user_tinterrupt     functions.(CVE-2016-4578)Systems with microprocessors     utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction     may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an     attacker with local user access via a side-channel     analysis.(CVE-2017-5753)The acm_probe function in     drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash) via a USB device without both a control and a     data endpoint descriptor.(CVE-2016-3138)The     arcmsr_iop_message_xfer function in     drivers/scsi/arcmsr/arcmsr_hba.c in the Linux kernel     through 4.8.2 does not restrict a certain length field,     which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a     denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) via an     ARCMSR_MESSAGE_WRITE_WQBUFFER control     code.(CVE-2016-7425)The ati_remote2_probe function in     drivers/input/misc/ati_remote2.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2185)The     create_fixed_stream_quirk function in     sound/usb/quirks.c in the snd-usb-audio driver in the     Linux kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference or double free, and system crash) via a     crafted endpoints value in a USB device     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2184)The digi_port_init function     in drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and system crash) via a crafted endpoints     value in a USB device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3140)The     do_remount function in fsamespace.c in the Linux kernel     through 3.16.1 does not maintain the MNT_LOCK_READONLY     bit across a remount of a bind mount, which allows     local users to bypass an intended read-only restriction     and defeat certain sandbox protection mechanisms via a     'mount -o remount' command within a user     namespace.(CVE-2014-5206)The gtco_probe function in     drivers/input/tablet/gtco.c in the Linux kernel through     4.5.2 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system     crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB device     descriptor.(CVE-2016-2187)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.(CVE-2015-8816)The     ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data function in     drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux kernel before     4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a     denial of service (system crash) via a USB device     without both a master and a slave     interface.(CVE-2016-3689)The Linux Kernel running on     AMD64 systems will sometimes map the contents of PIE     executable, the heap or ld.so to where the stack is     mapped allowing attackers to more easily manipulate the     stack. Linux Kernel version 4.11.5 is     affected.(CVE-2017-1000379)The powermate_probe function     in drivers/input/misc/powermate.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-2186)The signal     implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.3.5 on     powerpc platforms does not check for an MSR with both     the S and T bits set, which allows local users to cause     a denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception and panic)     via a crafted application.(CVE-2015-8844)The     snd_timer_user_params function in sound/core/timer.c in     the Linux kernel through 4.6 does not initialize a     certain data structure, which allows local users to     obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory     via crafted use of the ALSA timer     interface.(CVE-2016-4569)The tm_reclaim_thread function     in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.4.1 on powerpc platforms does not ensure that     TM suspend mode exists before proceeding with a     tm_reclaim call, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (TM Bad Thing exception and panic)     via a crafted application.(CVE-2015-8845)The VFS     subsystem in the Linux kernel 3.x provides an     incomplete set of requirements for setattr operations     that underspecifies removing extended privilege     attributes, which allows local users to cause a denial     of service (capability stripping) via a failed     invocation of a system call, as demonstrated by using     chown to remove a capability from the ping or Wireshark     dumpcap program.(CVE-2015-1350)The wacom_probe function     in drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c in the Linux kernel     before 3.17 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted endpoints value in a USB     device descriptor.(CVE-2016-3139)

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz),     the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel     handles the basic functions of the operating system:
    memory allocation, process allocation, device input and     output, etc.Security Fix(es):The uas driver in the     Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to cause     a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system     crash), or possibly have unspecified other impacts via     a crafted USB device, related to     drivers/usb/storage/uas-detect.h and     drivers/usb/storage/uas.c.(CVE-2017-16530)The     implementation of big key management in     security/keys/big_key.c in the Linux kernel before     4.8.7 mishandles unsuccessful crypto registration in     conjunction with successful key-type registration,     which allows local users to cause a denial of service     (NULL pointer dereference and panic) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted application that     uses the big_key data type.(CVE-2016-9313)The Linux     kernel allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary     code via UDP traffic that triggers an unsafe second     checksum calculation during execution of a recv system     call with the MSG_PEEK flag. This may create a kernel     panic or memory corruption leading to privilege     escalation.(CVE-2016-10229)Buffer overflow in the     exitcode_proc_write function in     arch/um/kernel/exitcode.c in the Linux kernel before     3.12 allows local users to cause a denial of service or     possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging     root privileges for a write operation.(CVE-2013-4512)It     was found that unsharing a mount namespace could allow     a user to see data beneath their restricted     namespace.(CVE-2014-9717)A divide-by-zero flaw was     discovered in the Linux kernel built with KVM     virtualization support(CONFIG_KVM). The flaw occurs in     the KVM module's Programmable Interval Timer(PIT)     emulation, when PIT counters for channel 1 or 2 are set     to zero(0) and a privileged user inside the guest     attempts to read these counters. A privileged guest     user with access to PIT I/O ports could exploit this     issue to crash the host kernel (denial of     service).(CVE-2015-7513)The ims_pcu_parse_cdc_data     function in drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c in the Linux     kernel before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate     attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash)     via a USB device without both a master and a slave     interface.(CVE-2016-3689)Stack-based buffer overflow in     the brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap() function in     'driverset/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg8021     1.c' in the Linux kernel before 4.7.5 allows local     users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or     possibly have unspecified other impact via a long SSID     Information Element in a command to a Netlink     socket.(CVE-2016-8658)drivers/hid/hid-sony.c in the     Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux     kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_SONY is enabled,     allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial     of service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a     crafted device.(CVE-2013-2890)An issue where a provided     address with access_ok() is not checked was discovered     in i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl in     drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c in the Linux     kernel through 4.19.13. A local attacker can craft a     malicious IOCTL function call to overwrite arbitrary     kernel memory, resulting in a Denial of Service or     privilege escalation.(CVE-2018-20669)It was found that     the permission checks performed by the Linux kernel     when a netlink message was received were not     sufficient. A local, unprivileged user could     potentially bypass these restrictions by passing a     netlink socket as stdout or stderr to a more privileged     process and altering the output of this     process.(CVE-2014-0181)An issue was discovered in the     XFS filesystem in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the     Linux kernel.

This can lead to a system crash     and a denial of service.(CVE-2018-13094)The     irda_setsockopt function in net/irda/af_irda.c in the     Linux kernel, through 4.16, allows local users to cause     a denial of service (due to a use-after-free of the     ias_object and a system crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact by leveraging an AF_IRDA     socket.(CVE-2018-6555)The x86/fpu (Floating Point Unit)     subsystem in the Linux kernel, when a processor     supports the xsave feature but not the xsaves feature,     does not correctly handle attempts to set reserved bits     in the xstate header via the ptrace() or rt_sigreturn()     system call. This allows local users to read the FPU     registers of other processes on the system, related to     arch/x86/kernel/fpu/regset.c and     arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c.(CVE-2017-15537)The     fst_get_iface function in driverset/wan/farsync.c in     the Linux kernel before 3.11.7 does not properly     initialize a certain data structure, which allows local     users to obtain sensitive information from kernel     memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for     an SIOCWANDEV ioctl call.(CVE-2014-1444)In the Linux     kernel, through 4.15.4, the floppy driver reveals the     addresses of kernel functions and global variables     using printk calls within the function show_floppy in     drivers/block/floppy.c. An attacker can read this     information from dmesg and use the addresses to find     the locations of kernel code and data and bypass kernel     security protections such as KASLR.(CVE-2018-7273)A     flaw in 'arch/arm64/kernel/sys.c' in the Linux kernel     allows local users to bypass the 'strict page     permissions' protection mechanism and modify the     system-call table and, consequently, gain privileges by     leveraging write access.(CVE-2015-8967)The Linux kernel     before 3.11 on ARM platforms, as used in Android before     2016-08-05 on Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not     properly consider user-space access to the TPIDRURW     register, which allows local users to gain privileges     via a crafted application, aka Android internal bug     28749743 and Qualcomm internal bug     CR561044.(CVE-2014-9870)A NULL pointer dereference     security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the     vcpu_scan_ioapic() function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c. This     allows local users with certain privileges to cause a     denial of service via a crafted system call to the KVM     subsystem.(CVE-2018-19407)It was found that current     implementation of kl5kusb105 driver failed to detect     short transfers when attempting to read the line state     and logged the content of the uninitialized heap     transfer buffer.(CVE-2017-5549)

According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The snd_timer_interrupt function in sound/core/timer.c     in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1 does not properly     maintain a certain linked list, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (race condition and     system crash) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2545)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     uses an incorrect type of mutex, which allows local     users to cause a denial of service (race condition,     use-after-free, and system crash) via a crafted ioctl     call.(CVE-2016-2546)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     employs a locking approach that does not consider slave     timer instances, which allows local users to cause a     denial of service (race condition, use-after-free, and     system crash) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2547)

  - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     retains certain linked lists after a close or stop     action, which allows local users to cause a denial of     service (system crash) via a crafted ioctl call,     related to the (1) snd_timer_close and (2)
    _snd_timer_stop functions.(CVE-2016-2548)

  - sound/core/hrtimer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1     does not prevent recursive callback access, which     allows local users to cause a denial of service     (deadlock) via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2016-2549)

  - A resource-exhaustion vulnerability was found in the     kernel, where an unprivileged process could allocate     and accumulate far more file descriptors than the     process' limit. A local, unauthenticated user could     exploit this flaw by sending file descriptors over a     Unix socket and then closing them to keep the process'     fd count low, thereby creating kernel-memory or     file-descriptors exhaustion (denial of     service).(CVE-2016-2550)

  - It is possible for a single process to cause an OOM     condition by filling large pipes with data that are     never read. A typical process filling 4096 pipes with 1     MB of data will use 4 GB of memory and there can be     multiple such processes, up to a     per-user-limit.(CVE-2016-2847)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel that an     attempt to move page mapped by AIO ring buffer to the     other node triggers NULL pointer dereference at     trace_writeback_dirty_page(), because     aio_fs_backing_dev_info.dev is 0.(CVE-2016-3070)

  - A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the     mark_source_chains() function in     'net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c'. It is possible for a     user-supplied 'ipt_entry' structure to have a large     'next_offset' field. This field is not bounds checked     prior to writing to a counter value at the supplied     offset.(CVE-2016-3134)

  - An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the     Linux kernel in xt_alloc_table_info, which on 32-bit     systems can lead to small structure allocation and a     copy_from_user based heap corruption.(CVE-2016-3135)

  - The mct_u232_msr_to_state function in     drivers/usb/serial/mct_u232.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a crafted USB device without two     interrupt-in endpoint descriptors.(CVE-2016-3136)

  - drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.1 allows physically proximate attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     system crash) via a USB device without both an     interrupt-in and an interrupt-out endpoint descriptor,     related to the cypress_generic_port_probe and     cypress_open functions.(CVE-2016-3137)

  - 'A security flaw was found in the Linux kernel's     networking subsystem that destroying the network     interface with huge number of ipv4 addresses assigned     keeps ''rtnl_lock'' spinlock for a very long time (up     to hour). This blocks many network-related operations,     including creation of new incoming ssh connections.

  - The problem is especially important for containers, as     the container owner has enough permissions to trigger     this and block a network access on a whole host,     outside the container.(CVE-2016-3156)'

  - A weakness was found in the Linux ASLR implementation.
    Any user able to running 32-bit applications in a x86     machine can disable ASLR by setting the RLIMIT_STACK     resource to unlimited.(CVE-2016-3672)

  - It was found that the Linux kernel's IPv6     implementation mishandled socket options. A local     attacker could abuse concurrent access to the socket     options to escalate their privileges, or cause a denial     of service (use-after-free and system crash) via a     crafted sendmsg system call.(CVE-2016-3841)

  - The usbip_recv_xbuff function in     drivers/usb/usbip/usbip_common.c in the Linux kernel     before 4.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted length value in     a USB/IP packet.(CVE-2016-3955)

  - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's keyring handling     code: the key_reject_and_link() function could be     forced to free an arbitrary memory block. An attacker     could use this flaw to trigger a use-after-free     condition on the system, potentially allowing for     privilege escalation.(CVE-2016-4470)

  - The proc_connectinfo() function in     'drivers/usb/core/devio.c' in the Linux kernel through     4.6 does not initialize a certain data structure, which     allows local users to obtain sensitive information from     kernel stack memory via a crafted USBDEVFS_CONNECTINFO     ioctl call. The stack object 'ci' has a total size of 8     bytes. Its last 3 bytes are padding bytes which are not     initialized and are leaked to userland.(CVE-2016-4482)

  - A flaw was found in the way certain interfaces of the     Linux kernel's Infiniband subsystem used write() as     bi-directional ioctl() replacement, which could lead to     insufficient memory security checks when being invoked     using the splice() system call. A local unprivileged     user on a system with either Infiniband hardware     present or RDMA Userspace Connection Manager Access     module explicitly loaded, could use this flaw to     escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2016-4565)

    Hector Marco and Ismael Ripoll discovered that the Linux kernel would improperly disable Address Space     Layout Randomization (ASLR) for x86 processes running in 32 bit mode if stack-consumption resource limits     were disabled. A local attacker could use this to make it easier to exploit an existing vulnerability in a     setuid/setgid program. (CVE-2016-3672)

    It was discovered that the Linux kernel's USB driver for IMS Passenger Control Unit devices did not     properly validate the device's interfaces. An attacker with physical access could use this to cause a     denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2016-3689)

    Andrey Konovalov discovered that the CDC Network Control Model USB driver in the Linux kernel did not     cancel work events queued if a later error occurred, resulting in a use-after-free. An attacker with     physical access could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2016-3951)

    It was discovered that an out-of-bounds write could occur when handling incoming packets in the USB/IP     implementation in the Linux kernel. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system     crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3955)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
