Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.
Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会发布的开源操作系统Linux所使用的内核。 Linux kernel 4.17之前版本中的net/irda/af_irda.c文件和drivers/staging/irda/net/af_irda.c文件的‘irda_bind’函数存在内存泄露漏洞。本地攻击者可通过重复绑定AF_IRDA套接字利用该漏洞造成拒绝服务（内存消耗）。
