Linux kernel source tree
Syzbot found an issue in usbmon module, where the user space client can
corrupt the monitor's internal memory, causing the usbmon module to
crash the kernel with segfault, UAF, etc.
The reproducer mmaps the /dev/usbmon memory to user space, and
overwrites it with arbitrary data, which causes all kinds of issues.
Return an -EPERM error from mon_bin_mmap() if the flag VM_WRTIE is set.
Also clear VM_MAYWRITE to make it impossible to change it to writable
later.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
