Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_osf: fix divide-by-zero in OSF_WSS_MODULO
nf_osf_match_one() computes ctx->window % f->wss.val in the
OSF_WSS_MODULO branch with no guard for f->wss.val == 0. A
CAP_NET_ADMIN user can add such a fingerprint via nfnetlink; a
subsequent matching TCP SYN divides by zero and panics the kernel.
Reject the bogus fingerprint in nfnl_osf_add_callback() above the
per-option for-loop. f->wss is per-fingerprint, not per-option, so
the check must run regardless of f->opt_num (including 0). Also
reject wss.wc >= OSF_WSS_MAX; nf_osf_match_one() already treats that
as "should not happen".
Crash:
Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI
RIP: 0010:nf_osf_match_one (net/netfilter/nfnetlink_osf.c:98)
