LIN1025-8098 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2026-23139

Created: Feb 24, 2026    Updated: Feb 26, 2026
Found In Version: 10.25.33.2
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 25
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_conncount: update last_gc only when GC has been performed

Currently last_gc is being updated everytime a new connection is
tracked, that means that it is updated even if a GC wasn't performed.
With a sufficiently high packet rate, it is possible to always bypass
the GC, causing the list to grow infinitely.

Update the last_gc value only when a GC has been actually performed.
