Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-15 15:04:52 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: ipset: add the missing IP_SET_HASH_WITH_NET0 macro for ip_set_hash_netportnet.c

The missing IP_SET_HASH_WITH_NET0 macro in ip_set_hash_netportnet can
lead to the use of wrong `CIDR_POS(c)` for calculating array offsets,
which can lead to integer underflow. As a result, it leads to slab
out-of-bound access.
This patch adds back the IP_SET_HASH_WITH_NET0 macro to
ip_set_hash_netportnet to address the issue.
