[Cengiz Can]

[Impact]
A flaw use after free in the Linux kernel video4linux driver was found
in the way user triggers em28xx_usb_probe() for the Empia 28xx based TV
cards. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system or 
potentially escalate their privileges on the system.

[Fix]
Fix was cherry picked from the upstream stable 4.14.y backport.

[Test case]
Since the driver requires a hardware TV card, only compile and boot
tested on KVM.

[Potential regression]
Unknown.
