This has been fixed a long long time ago, can't even find how long ago but the patch for the cve is in our code:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/net-tools/blob/rawhide/f/net-tools-cycle.patch#_33

It has a bit different approach but the result is the same. I am closing the bug, feel free to reopen should you feel that my assessment is incorrect.
