Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

Recommended fix High confidence

Linux kernel 4.9.337 / 4.14.303 / 4.19.270 / 5.4.229 or later (select based on your current branch)

  1. Identify your current Linux kernel version using `uname -r`
  2. Determine which version branch you are on (e.g., 4.9.x, 4.14.x, 4.19.x, or 5.4.x)
  3. Upgrade the Linux kernel to a fixed version: for 4.9.x branch upgrade to >= 4.9.337, for 4.14.x branch upgrade to >= 4.14.303, for 4.19.x branch upgrade to >= 4.19.270, or for 5.4.x branch upgrade to >= 5.4.229
  4. Reboot the system to load the patched kernel
  5. Verify the fix by checking kernel version with `uname -r` and confirming the vub300 driver loads without the warning
