CVE-2024-50251 – Linux Kernel netfilter Off-By-One vulnerability

CVE ID : CVE-2024-50251

Published : Nov. 9, 2024, 11:15 a.m. | 1 hour, 1 minute ago

Description : In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nft_payload: sanitize offset and length before calling skb_checksum()

If access to offset + length is larger than the skbuff length, then
skb_checksum() triggers BUG_ON().

skb_checksum() internally subtracts the length parameter while iterating
over skbuff, BUG_ON(len) at the end of it checks that the expected
length to be included in the checksum calculation is fully consumed.

Severity: 0.0 | NA
