Threats tagged 'ghsa-x476-x69x-m4jr'

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's IP Virtual Server (IPVS) TCP state handling was resolved. The issue involved incorrect parsing of the TCP header offset for IPv6 packets with extension headers, causing TCP state lookups to reference incorrect bytes. This flaw was fixed by using the correct parsed transport offset passed from ip_vs_set_state(). The vulnerability affects specific Linux kernel versions and has a medium severity rating. A patch is available to address this issue.
