+ error when parsing the "SerialNumber" field of a USB device, which could
+ cause a heap-based buffer overflow.

+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>An attacker could gain physical access or entice a user to connect to a
+ malicious USB device, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code
+ with the privileges of the "usbmux" user.

+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
