CVE-2014-9715
Last modified
CVE-2014-9715 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_extend.h in the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel before 3.14.5 uses an insufficiently large data type for certain extension data, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via outbound network traffic that triggers extension loading, as demonstrated by configuring a PPTP tunnel in a NAT environment.. EPSS estimates a 0.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
