Title:
  analyze_suspend.py may allow shell code injection

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  File :
  /usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-7/scripts/analyze_suspend.py

  The file "analyze_suspend.py" uses depreached and insecure python calls like os.popen and os.system.
  This may lead to unwanted code execution. 

  For example when the script does a walk through /sys/devices , 
  it could be possible that shell code in the "dirname" of the device will be executed by a shell , 
  e.g. with a special crafted ( loop ? ) device with the name "/sys/devices/...some path.../;shell command here;/.../usb9/" and puts  2 files 'idVendor' and  'idProduct' into that folder.  

  So, please replace all the the os calls with subprocess.

  Line : 2829-2842

  def setUSBDevicesAuto():
  	global sysvals

  	rootCheck()
  	for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.walk('/sys/devices'):
  		if(re.match('.*/usb[0-9]*.*', dirname) and
  			'idVendor' in filenames and 'idProduct' in filenames):
  			os.system('echo auto > %s/power/control' % dirname)
  			name = dirname.split('/')[-1]
  			desc = os.popen('cat %s/product 2>/dev/null' % \
  				dirname).read().replace('\n', '')
  			ctrl = os.popen('cat %s/power/control 2>/dev/null' % \
  				dirname).read().replace('\n', '')
  			print('control is %s for %6s: %s' % (ctrl, name, desc))
