CVE-2007-1497

Publication date 16 March 2007

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Unknown

Why this priority?

nf_conntrack in netfilter in the Linux kernel before 2.6.20.3 does not set nfctinfo during reassembly of fragmented packets, which leaves the default value as IP_CT_ESTABLISHED and might allow remote attackers to bypass certain rulesets using IPv6 fragments.
