Dear Greg,

Thank you, Greg!

Yes, as you mentioned, it requires users to create their own udev rules, which is not common among Ubuntu personal users. However, in some non-personal user scenarios, they must pre-add udev rules to meet their needs. A simple example: in some Ubuntu embedded Linux scenarios, we found that when starting a wireless hotspot, developers must configure udev rules to ensure a stable connection, enable auto-loading of drivers, or auto-run or write USB-based auto-configuration scripts.

Alright, thank you for your fix. We will proceed to the email you specified to request a CVE.
