A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in nf_conntrack_irc where the message handling can be confused and it incorrectly matches on the message. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass firewall when users are using unencrypted IRC with nf_conntrack_irc configured.
Mitigation
To mitigate this issue, prevent the module nf_conntrack_irc from being loaded. Please see <https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278> for information on how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
