DEBIAN-CVE-2022-1012

A memory leak problem was found in the TCP source port generation algorithm in net/ipv4/tcp.c due to the small table perturb size. This flaw may allow an attacker to information leak and may cause a denial of service problem...

kernel: Small table perturb size in the TCP source port generation algorithm can lead to information leak

The Linux kernel's TCP source port generation algorithm in the TCP stack contains a flaw due to the small table perturb size. This flaw allows an attacker to positively distinguish a system among devices with identical hardware and software, which lasts until the device restarts. An attacker can...
