CVE-2018-5391 – The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, IP implementation is vulnerable to denial of service conditions with low rates of specially modified packets

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-5391

The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, is vulnerable to a denial of service attack with low rates of specially modified packets targeting IP fragment re-assembly. An attacker may cause a denial of service condition by sending specially crafted IP fragments. Various vulnerabilities in IP fragmentation have been discovered and fixed over the years. The current vulnerability (CVE-2018-5391) became exploitable in the Linux kernel with the increase of the IP fragment reassembly queue size. El kernel de Linux en versiones a partir de la 3.9 es vulnerable a un ataque de denegación de servicio (DoS) con tasas bajas de paquetes especialmente modificados que apuntan hacia el reensamblado de fragmentos de IP. • http://www.arubanetworks.com/assets/alert/ARUBA-PSA-2018-004.txt http://www.huawei.com/en/psirt/security-advisories/huawei-sa-20200115-01-linux-en http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/06/28/2 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/07/06/3 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2019/07/06/4 http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/105108 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1041476 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1041637 https://access.redhat.co • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption •
