Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-08-15 06:22 - Updated: 2026-08-17 06:18
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_connmark: reject invalid shift parameters
Revision 2 of the CONNMARK target accepts user-controlled shift
parameters and applies them to 32-bit mark values in
connmark_tg_shift().
A shift_bits value of 32 or more triggers an undefined-shift bug when
the rule is evaluated. Invalid shift_dir values are also accepted and
silently fall back to the left-shift path.
Reject invalid revision-2 shift parameters in connmark_tg_check() so
malformed rules fail at installation time, before they can reach the
packet path.
