Disclosure Date: June 19, 2019
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP_SKB_CB(skb)–>tcp_gso_segs value was subject to an integer overflow in the Linux kernel when handling TCP Selective Acknowledgments (SACKs). A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit 3b4929f65b0d8249f19a50245cd88ed1a2f78cff.
