CVE-2019-11478

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP retransmission queue implementation in tcp_fragment in the Linux kernel could be fragmented when handling certain TCP Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) sequences. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e.

Jonathan Looney descubrió que la implementación de la cola de retransmisión de TCP en tcp_fragment en el kernel de Linux podría estar fragmentada cuando se manejan ciertas secuencias de Reconocimiento Selectivo (SACK) de TCP. Un atacante remoto podría usar esto para causar una denegación de servicio. Esto se ha corregido en versiones de kernel estables 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, y se corrige en el commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e.
