CVE-2025-14769
7.5
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
In some cases, the tcp-setmss handler may free the packet data and throw an error without halting the rule processing engine. A subsequent rule can then allow the traffic after the packet data is gone, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference.
Maliciously crafted packets sent from a remote host may result in a Denial of Service (DoS) if the tcp-setmss directive is used and a subsequent rule would allow the traffic to pass.
