Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
IPVS sync receivers fail to properly validate protocol states for connection templates, logging states outside the template state range but still storing the invalid values in the connection. Because a template can be returned by an ordinary connection lookup, TCP and SCTP may use this invalid state as an index into their transition tables.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
