CVE-2026-72256 in Linux
要約
〜によって MITRE • 2026年08月15日
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_cluster: reject template conntracks in hash match
xt_cluster_mt() treats any non-NULL nf_ct_get() result as a fully initialized conntrack and passes it to xt_cluster_hash().
This causes a state confusion bug when the raw table CT target attaches a template conntrack to skb->_nfct before normal conntrack processing. Templates carry IPS_TEMPLATE status but do not have a valid tuple for hashing yet, so xt_cluster_hash() can hit its WARN_ON() path on the zeroed l3num field.
Reject template conntracks before hashing them. This matches existing netfilter handling for template objects and avoids hashing incomplete conntrack state.
