Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-74290)

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor

CVSSv4: 5.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper exposure of sensitive information in the cls_flow classifier when processing class statistics for map mode rules with user-controlled mask, xor, rshift, addend, and divisor values. A remote user can create a tc classifier and observe the resulting classid through class statistics to disclose sensitive information.

Exploitation requires the ability to use a tc classifier in a user or network namespace.
