kernel: tcp: excessive resource consumption for TCP connections with low MSS allows remote denial of service

An excessive resource consumption flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's networking subsystem processed TCP segments. If the Maximum Segment Size MSS of a TCP connection was set to low values, such as 48 bytes, it can leave as little as 8 bytes for the user data, which significantly increas...
