UnknownEPSS 0.45%

Last modified

CVE-2013-2058 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The host_start function in drivers/usb/chipidea/host.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7.4 does not properly support a certain non-streaming option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by sending a large amount of network traffic through a USB/Ethernet adapter.. EPSS estimates a 0.45% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
