CVE-2017-8066
Last modified
CVE-2017-8066 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. drivers/net/can/usb/gs_usb.c in the Linux kernel 4.9.x and 4.10.x before 4.10.2 interacts incorrectly with the CONFIG_VMAP_STACK option, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash or memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of more than one virtual page for a DMA scatterlist.. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
