CVE-2026-31407 HIGH

Published: 2026-04-06 | Last Modified: 2026-07-24 | Status: Modified

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: conntrack: add missing netlink policy validations Hyunwoo Kim reports out-of-bounds access in sctp and ctnetlink. These attributes are used by the kernel without any validation. Extend the netlink policies accordingly. Quoting the reporter: nlattr_to_sctp() assigns the user-supplied CTA_PROTOINFO_SCTP_STATE value directly to ct->proto.sctp.state without checking that it is within the valid range. [..] and: ... with exp->dir = 100, the access at ct->master->tuplehash[100] reads 5600 bytes past the start of a 320-byte nf_conn object, causing a slab-out-of-bounds read confirmed by UBSAN.

En el kernel de Linux, la siguiente vulnerabilidad ha sido resuelta: netfilter: conntrack: añadir validaciones de políticas netlink faltantes Hyunwoo Kim informa de acceso fuera de límites en sctp y ctnetlink. Estos atributos son utilizados por el kernel sin ninguna validación. Extender las políticas netlink en consecuencia. Citando al informante: 'nlattr_to_sctp() asigna el valor CTA_PROTOINFO_SCTP_STATE proporcionado por el usuario directamente a ct -> proto.sctp.state sin comprobar que esté dentro del rango válido. [..] y: ... con exp -> dir = 100, el acceso en ct -> master -> tuplehash[100] lee 5600 bytes más allá del inicio de un objeto nf_conn de 320 bytes, causando una lectura fuera de límites de slab confirmada por UBSAN.'
