CVSS 7 HIGH
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `nfnetlink_cthelper` component. This vulnerability, an out-of-bounds read, occurs in the `nfnl_cthelper_dump_table()` function when a network connection tracking helper is removed during a dump operation, leading to a bypassed bounds check. A local attacker could exploit this to cause a system crash (denial of service) or potentially access sensitive information from kernel memory.
