  "details" : [ "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter connection tracking (ctnetlink) component. This vulnerability, related to improper input validation, allows an attacker to provide malformed netlink policy attributes. Specifically, invalid values for TCP window scaling (WSCALE) could lead to undefined behavior within the kernel. This could result in a system crash, causing a Denial of Service (DoS) for affected systems." ],
