{"id":"AZL-83303","summary":"CVE-2026-31495 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.134.1-2","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: ctnetlink: use netlink policy range checks\n\nReplace manual range and mask validations with netlink policy\nannotations in ctnetlink code paths, so that the netlink core rejects\ninvalid values early and can generate extack errors.\n\n- CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_STATE: reject values \u003e TCP_CONNTRACK_SYN_SENT2 at\n  policy level, removing the manual \u003e= TCP_CONNTRACK_MAX check.\n- CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP_WSCALE_ORIGINAL/REPLY: reject values \u003e TCP_MAX_WSCALE\n  (14). The normal TCP option parsing path already clamps to this value,\n  but the ctnetlink path accepted 0-255, causing undefined behavior when\n  used as a u32 shift count.\n- CTA_FILTER_ORIG_FLAGS/REPLY_FLAGS: use NLA_POLICY_MASK with\n  CTA_FILTER_F_ALL, removing the manual mask checks.\n- CTA_EXPECT_FLAGS: use NLA_POLICY_MASK with NF_CT_EXPECT_MASK, adding\n  a new mask define grouping all valid expect flags.\n\nExtracted from a broader nf-next patch by Florian Westphal, scoped to\nctnetlink for the fixes tree.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:47:34.357357644Z","published":"2026-04-22T14:16:47Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-31495"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-31495"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.134.1-2"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-83303.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
