Title:
  Root can lift kernel lockdown via USB/IP

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  It's possible to turn off kernel lockdown by emulating a USB keyboard
  via USB/IP and sending an Alt+SysRq+X key combination through it.

  Ubuntu's kernels have USB/IP enabled (CONFIG_USBIP_VHCI_HCD=m and
  CONFIG_USBIP_CORE=m) with signed usbip_core and vhci_hcd modules
  provided in the linux-extra-modules-* package.

  See the PoC here: https://github.com/xairy/unlockdown#method-1-usbip
