CVE-2026-72347info

Summary

by MITRE • 08/15/2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: xt_connmark: reject invalid shift parameters

Revision 2 of the CONNMARK target accepts user-controlled shift parameters and applies them to 32-bit mark values in connmark_tg_shift().

A shift_bits value of 32 or more triggers an undefined-shift bug when the rule is evaluated. Invalid shift_dir values are also accepted and silently fall back to the left-shift path.

Reject invalid revision-2 shift parameters in connmark_tg_check() so malformed rules fail at installation time, before they can reach the packet path.
