Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to the commit 4bedf9eee016286c835e3d8fa981ddece5338795
Description
A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's netfilter: nf tables component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. The flaw in the error handling of bound chains causes a use-after-free in the abort path of NFT MSG NEWRULE. The vulnerability requires CAP NET ADMIN to be triggered.
Recommendations
Upgrade past commit 4bedf9eee016286c835e3d8fa981ddece5338795 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the netfilter: nf tables component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
