CVE-2026-43452
8.2
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: x_tables: guard option walkers against 1-byte tail reads
When the last byte of options is a non-single-byte option kind, walkers that advance with i += op[i + 1] ? : 1 can read op[i + 1] past the end of the option area.
Add an explicit i == optlen - 1 check before dereferencing op[i + 1] in xt_tcpudp and xt_dccp option walkers.
