Hi Mathias, That's for double checking this. Our tracking was a bit off as the fix commit was not directly touching the code that introduced the issue in kernel version 5.4. I've updated our tracking and the CVE page will updated shortly. https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-25636.html Thanks again, Alex~ On Wed, Mar 16, 2022 at 07:17:50AM +0100, Mathias Homann wrote:

Hi,
just came across CVE-2022-25636 in this article: https://www.zdnet.com/ article/nasty-linux-netfilter-firewall-security-hole-found/
Is there an update for Leap 15.3 and SLES in the works?
Tumbleweed should be ok since the bug is "only" in kernels up to 5.6.10 and TW currently runs on 5.16.14.
on second thought, Leap and SLES should be fine too: Kernels affected are 5.4 to 5.10 - Leap and SLES use 5.3.x, TW uses 5.16.
I hate ZD Net sensationalism. But please someone verify that we're safe about this one, I hate local privilege elevation holes more.
Cheers MH
