Description Alex 2022-08-04 10:47:08 UTC 
A Linux Kernel flaw found in the net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c.
If local user creates netfilter rule that truncates the packet below the header size, the skb_pull() will result in a malformed skb (skb->len < 0).
As result, denial of service could happen after incorrect check in nfqnl_mangle function.

Fixes: 7af4cc3fa158 ("[NETFILTER]: Add "nfnetlink_queue" netfilter queue handler over nfnetlink")
