That range isn't quite correct. It only impacted 4.13 kernels, and only 4.13.0-4.13.6 (inclusive, distro-dependent due to backports).

It was patched in 4.13.7 after being introduced in the 4.13.0 merge window.

This issue shouldn't have happened at all, but it was caught and patched very quickly, so relatively few real-world systems are or were affected.
