CVE-2025-21826
CVE-2025-21826
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: reject mismatching sum of field_len with set key length
The field length description provides the length of each separated key field in the concatenation, each field gets rounded up to 32-bits to calculate the pipapo rule width from pipapo_init(). The set key length provides the total size of the key aligned to 32-bits.
Register-based arithmetics still allows for combining mismatching set key length and field length description, eg. set key length 10 and field description [ 5, 4 ] leading to pipapo width of 12.
