CVE-2023-42753 - High Severity Vulnerability
The Linux Kernel
Library home page: https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/?wsslib=linux
Found in HEAD commit: b5b714ca9ef206399fe7c298901c062244179628
Found in base branch: master
An array indexing vulnerability was found in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. A missing macro could lead to a miscalculation of the `h->nets` array offset, providing attackers with the primitive to arbitrarily increment/decrement a memory buffer out-of-bound. This issue may allow a local user to crash the system or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.
