CVE-2026-64410
Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter component, specifically concerning the handling of IPIP (IP-in-IP) tunnel hardware offload. The system attempts to utilize hardware offload for IPIP tunnels, a feature not yet supported by existing drivers. A remote attacker could potentially exploit this unsupported operation, leading to a denial of service, compromise of data integrity, or disclosure of sensitive information due to the improper processing of network traffic.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
