CVE-2020-36694 (GCVE-0-2020-36694)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-05-21 00:00 – Updated: 2025-01-31 17:46
VLAI?
Summary
An issue was discovered in netfilter in the Linux kernel before 5.10. There can be a use-after-free in the packet processing context, because the per-CPU sequence count is mishandled during concurrent iptables rules replacement. This could be exploited with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability in an unprivileged namespace. NOTE: cc00bca was reverted in 5.12.
Severity ?
