CVE-2021-29265: Debian Linux

Medium severity, CVSS 4.7. EPSS: 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.7. usbip_sockfd_store in drivers/usb/usbip/stub_dev.c allows attackers to cause a denial of service (GPF) because the stub-up sequence has race conditions during an update of the local and shared status, aka CID-9380afd6df70.

Affected products

  • Debian Debian Linux: version 9.0 only
  • Linux Linux Kernel: before 5.11.7 (fixed in 5.11.7)
