Other sources

Linux kernel built with the ChipIdia Highspeed Dual Role Controller (CONFIGUSBCHIPIDEA) along with the ChipIdea host controller (CONFIGUSBCHIPIDEAHOST) modules, is vulnerable to a kernel crash. It could occur while streaming content over network via USB/Ethernet adapter.

A user/program could use this flaw to crash the kernel, resulting in DoS.

Upstream fix: ------------- -> https://git.kernel.org/linus/929473ea05db455ad88cdc081f2adc556b8dc48f

— Red Hat

The hoststart 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.
