| Vetor | AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel version 2.6.16
Description:
A race condition exists in the do add counters function in netfilter for the Linux kernel, allowing local users with CAP NET ADMIN capabilities to read kernel memory. This is achieved by triggering the race condition to produce a size value inconsistent with allocated memory, resulting in a buffer over-read in IPT ENTRY ITERATE.
Recommendations:
For Linux kernel version 2.6.16, consider restricting access to the do add counters function or applying configuration changes to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
