| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A flaw in the netfilter ctnetlink component allows for unsafe access to the master conntrack object. Holding a reference to the expectation is insufficient because the master conntrack object can be removed, rendering
exp->master invalid. This occurs during the delete expectation command, the get expectation command, and during the delivery of the IPEXP NEW event, where the master conntrack event cache is accessed via exp->master.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
