DescriptionA use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s dvb-core subsystem (DVB API used by Digital TV devices) in how a user physically removed a USB device (such as a DVB demultiplexer device) while running malicious code. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s dvb-core subsystem (DVB API used by Digital TV devices) in how a user physically removed a USB device (such as a DVB demultiplexer device) while running malicious code.
