In the Linux kernel before 5.1.7, a device can be tracked by an attacker using the IP ID values the kernel produces for connection-less protocols (e.g., UDP and ICMP). When such traffic is sent to multiple destination IP addresses, it is possible to obtain hash collisions (of indices to the counter array) and thereby obtain the hashing key (via enumeration). An attack may be conducted by hosting a crafted web page that uses WebRTC or gQUIC to force UDP traffic to attacker-controlled IP addresses.

En el kernel de Linux anterior a versión 5.1.7, un atacante puede rastrear un dispositivo utilizando los valores ID de IP que el kernel produce para los protocolos sin conexión (por ejemplo, UDP e ICMP). Cuando dicho tráfico se envía a múltiples direcciones IP de destino, es posible obtener colisiones de hash (de índices en la matriz counter) y, de este modo, obtener la clave de hashing (mediante enumeración). Puede ser conducido un ataque mediante el alojamiento de una página web especialmente diseñada que utiliza WebRTC o gQUIC para forzar el tráfico UDP a las direcciones IP controladas por el atacante.
