Title: Linux kernel regression
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.

kernel: use-after-free in sound/core/init.c and sound/core/info.c
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.10. There is a use-after-free in the sound subsystem because card disconnection causes certain data structures to be deleted too early. This is related to sound/core/init.c and sound/core/info.c.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel’s core sound driver code. A use-after-free in a race condition between disconnection events could allow a local attacker who can trigger disconnection events (remove or add hardware) to crash the system, corrupt memory, or escalate privileges.
Mitigation: As the snd module will be auto-loaded when required, its use can be disabled by preventing the module from loading with the following instructions:
# echo "install snd /bin/true"

## Abstract
Code cloning is a common practice in software development, but it poses significant security risks by propagating vulnerabilities across cloned segments. To address this challenge, we introduce srcVul, a scalable, precise detection approach that combines program slicing with Locality-Sensitive Hashing to identify vulnerable code clones and recommend patches. srcVul builds a database of vulnerability-related slices by analyzing known vulnerable programs and their corresponding patches, indexing each slice
