DescriptionCVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: synproxy: fix unaligned memory access in timestamp adjustment

Use get_unaligned_be32() and put_unaligned_be32() to safely read and write the timestamp fields. This prevents performance degradation due to unaligned memory access or even a crash on strict alignment architectures.

This follows the implementation of timestamp parsing in the networking stack at tcp_parse_options() and synproxy_parse_options().

AnalysisAI

Unaligned memory access in the Linux kernel netfilter synproxy timestamp adjustment code can crash the kernel or degrade performance on strict-alignment CPU architectures when synproxy is actively configured. Systems running synproxy as a SYN-flood mitigation layer on architectures such as SPARC, classic MIPS, or ARM without hardware unaligned-access emulation are exposed to remote-triggered denial of service via crafted TCP packets. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Two simultaneous prerequisites must be met for successful exploitation: (1) The Linux kernel netfilter synproxy module must be actively deployed in iptables or nftables rules - this is a non-default configuration requiring root/administrator privileges to establish, meaning the administrator must have intentionally enabled synproxy-based SYN-flood mitigation; AND (2) The host hardware must enforce strict memory alignment - architectures at risk include SPARC, classic MIPS, and ARM configurations without hardware transparent unaligned-access emulation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD-assigned CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H (7.5 High) represents the ceiling of impact but overstates realistic risk in two important ways. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to Linux kernel 6.12.97, 6.18.40, 7.1.5, or 7.2 depending on the active stable branch; the four upstream fix commits are available at git.kernel.org (2b8e7aaa38002d8ee2f48d87b1f392eadd8e98c4, 5c9c67cf7a3d16051dfb90e98836f530964dfb8e, ea3d2caa5bfacf5db5c1cad521ca5d9144edd9a7, 992c20bc8a4aba220c8b95b467d049289778dad6). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
