Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-03 18:16 - Updated: 2026-10-19 20:18

Severity

9.1 (Critical) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
7.3 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_inner: Fix IPv6 inner_thoff desync In nft_inner_parse_l2l3(), when processing inner IPv6 packets, ipv6_find_hdr() correctly computes the transport header offset traversing all extension headers, but the result is immediately overwritten with nhoff + sizeof(_ip6h) (40 bytes), which only accounts for the IPv6 base header. This creates a desync between inner_thoff (wrong — points to extension header start) and l4proto (correct — e.g., IPPROTO_TCP), enabling transport header forgery and potential firewall bypass. This issue affects stable versions from Linux 6.2. For comparison, the normal (non-inner) IPv6 path correctly preserves ipv6_find_hdr()'s result. Removing the incorrect overwrite ensures that ipv6_find_hdr()'s calculated transport header offset is preserved, thereby fixing the desynchronization.

This issue affects stable versions\nfrom Linux 6.2.\n\nFor comparison, the normal (non-inner) IPv6 path correctly\npreserves ipv6_find_hdr()\u0027s result.

Este problema afecta a versiones estables a partir de Linux 6.2.\n\nA modo de comparaci\u00f3n, la ruta IPv6 normal (no interna) conserva correctamente el resultado de ipv6_find_hdr().

This creates a desync between\ninner_thoff (wrong \u2014 points to extension header start) and l4proto\n(correct \u2014 e.g., IPPROTO_TCP), enabling transport header forgery\nand potential firewall bypass. This issue affects stable versions\nfrom Linux 6.2.\n\nFor comparison, the normal (non-inner) IPv6 path correctly\npreserves ipv6_find_hdr()\u0027s result. Removing the incorrect overwrite\nensures that ipv6_find_hdr()\u0027s calculated transport header offset is\npreserved, thereby fixing the desynchronization."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
