Descriptions

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.

La función hub_activate en drivers/usb/core/hub.c en el Kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 4.3.5 no mantiene correctamente una estructura de datos hub-interface, lo que permite a atacantes físicamente próximos provocar una denegación de servicio (acceso a memoria no válido y caída de sistema) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado desenchufando un dispositivo hub USB.
