Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: x_tables: guard option walkers against 1-byte tail reads When the last byte of options is a non-single-byte option kind, walkers that advance with i += op[i + 1] ? : 1 can read op[i + 1] past the end of the option area. Add an explicit i == optlen - 1 check before dereferencing op[i + 1] in xt_tcpudp and xt_dccp option walkers.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 2.6.16 < 5.10.253) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.203) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.167) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.130) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.78) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.19) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 6.19.9) • linux linux kernel 7.0
