kernel: out-of-bounds write in xt_compat_target_from_user() in net/netfilter/x_tables.c

A flaw was discovered in processing setsockopt IPTSOSETREPLACE or IP6TSOSETREPLACE for 32 bit processes on 64 bit systems. This flaw will allow local user to gain privileges or cause a DoS through user name space. This action is usually restricted to root-privileged users but can also be leverage...

The vulnerability of the `xt_alloc_table_info` function in the kernel’s `net/netfilter/x_tables.c` file in the Linux operating system allows a hacker to escalate their privileges or cause service interruptions.

The vulnerability of the xtalloctableinfo function in the kernel’s net/netfilter/xtables.c file in the Linux operating system is caused by a numerical overflow. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker, operating locally, to increase their privileges or cause a service failure memory...

kernel: out of bounds reads when processing IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt

An out-of-bounds heap memory access leading to a Denial of Service, heap disclosure, or further impact was found in setsockopt. The function call is normally restricted to root, however some processes with capsysadmin may also be able to trigger this flaw in privileged container environments...
