Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel ipv4 stack. The socket buffer (skb) was assumed to be associated with a device before calling ip options compile, which is not always the case if the skb is re-routed by ipvs. This issue may allow a local user with CAP NET ADMIN privileges to crash the system.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
