Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux Kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to an uncontrolled recursion in the Open vSwitch component of the Linux Kernel. This occurs when a recursive operation of code push recursively calls into the code block, and the OVS module does not validate the stack depth, pushing too many frames and causing a stack overflow. As a result, this can lead to a crash or other related issues.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
