CVE-2024-50251

MediumCVSS 6.2/10Last modified Oct 15, 2026

Description

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

netfilter: nft_payload: sanitize offset and length before calling skb_checksum()

If access to offset + length is larger than the skbuff length, then skb_checksum() triggers BUG_ON().

skb_checksum() internally subtracts the length parameter while iterating over skbuff, BUG_ON(len) at the end of it checks that the expected length to be included in the checksum calculation is fully consumed.
