NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream realtime-kernel package and not the realtime-kernel package as distributed by RHEL.

The usbhid_parse function in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device.
