In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: make hash table per queue
Sharing a global hash table among all queues is tempting, but it can cause crash:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in nfqnl_recv_verdict+0x11ac/0x15e0 [nfnetlink_queue] [..] nfqnl_recv_verdict+0x11ac/0x15e0 [nfnetlink_queue] nfnetlink_rcv_msg+0x46a/0x930 kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof+0x11e/0x450
struct nf_queue_entry is freed via kfree, but parallel cpu can still encounter such an nf_queue_entry when walking the list.
Alternative fix is to free the nf_queue_entry via kfree_rcu() instead, but as we have to alloc/free for each skb this will cause more mem pressure.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in Linux kernel netfilter nfnetlink_queue allows authenticated users with low privileges to execute arbitrary code with high integrity and availability impact via race condition in shared hash table. The vulnerability stems from a use-after-free condition when multiple queues share a global hash table, enabling parallel CPU operations to access freed nf_queue_entry structures. …

RemediationAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all Linux systems running affected kernel versions (pre-6.12.83, pre-6.18.24, pre-6.19.14) using inventory and patch management tools. Within 7 days: Apply vendor-released kernel patches to production systems following your change management process-prioritize systems with high-privileged service isolation requirements. …
