Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
It was discovered that the Intel Wi-Fi device driver in the Linux kernel
did not properly validate certain Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS). A
physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(Wi-Fi disconnect). (CVE-2019-0136)
It was discovered that the Bluetooth UART implementation in the Linux
kernel did not properly check for missing tty operations. A local attacker
could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2019-10207)

Summary: USN 4115-1 introduced a regression in the Linux kernel.
USN 4115-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux 4.15 kernel for Ubuntu
18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Unfortunately, as part of the update,
a regression was introduced that caused a kernel crash when handling
fragmented packets in some situations. This update addresses the issue.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.1.8. There is a double-free caused by a malicious USB device in the drivers/usb/misc/rio500.c driver.
A use-after-free flaw was found in the RIO500 driver in the Linux kernel. The implementation of the driver did not consider that multiple RIO500 devices could be attached to the same system, simultaneously. When a second device connects, the system overwrites the data structures in use by the first allowing a local attacker to possibly create a use-after-free situation which can lead to memory corruption, system panic, or privilege escalation. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability, although data integrity is also at risk as we

CVE-2019-15212 [MEDIUM] CVE-2019-15212 kernel: double-free caused by malicious USB device in drivers/usb/misc/rio500.c
CVE-2019-15212 kernel: double-free caused by malicious USB device in drivers/usb/misc/rio500.c
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernels driver for the RIO 500. The driver itself was not designed to allow for multiple RIO500 devices to be pluggged into the system.
The Rio 500 was an early generation portal MP3 digital audio player produced by Diamond Multimedia which used a USB connection to connect to the computer. According to upstream this driver is rarely used due to both the rarity of the hardware and that the userspace software migrated to libusb as a transport mechanism.
