NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.34.1.el6uek package and not the dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.34.1.el6uek package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The function hso_get_config_data in drivers/net/usb/hso.c in the Linux kernel through 4.19.8 reads if_num from the USB device (as a u8) and uses it to index a small array, resulting in an object out-of-bounds (OOB) read that potentially allows arbitrary read in the kernel address space.
