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.
