Linux Kernel Vulnerabilities — Ubuntu Security Update (USN-9035-1)
USN-9035-1 fixes 8 distinct kernel CVEs for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Its lead flaw (CVE-2017-9986, CWE-125 out-of-bounds in this advisory's data): Pengfei Wang discovered that the Turtle Beach MultiSound audio device driver contained race conditions when fetching from the ring-buffer, leading to an out-of-bounds access a local attacker could use to crash the system or possibly execute arbitrary code. The notice's severity data reaches CVSS 7.8.

The audio-driver flaw only matters where that legacy driver is loaded, but the notice bundles 8 kernel fixes — patch on the regular cycle and reboot. Local code-execution potential in a kernel driver justifies prompt treatment.
Pengfei Wang discovered that the Turtle Beach MultiSound audio device
driver in the Linux kernel contained race conditions when fetching from the
ring-buffer, leading to an out-of-bounds access. A local attacker could use
this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-9986)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
