UnknownEPSS 0.36%

Last modified

CVE-2002-2254 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The experimental IP packet queuing feature in Netfilter / IPTables in Linux kernel 2.4 up to 2.4.19 and 2.5 up to 2.5.31, when a privileged process exits and network traffic is not being queued, may allow a later process with the same Process ID (PID) to access certain network traffic that would otherwise be restricted.. EPSS estimates a 0.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
