It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-50251 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50251/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50251/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50251","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50251/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50251","record":{"aliases":["AZL-53277","AZL-53328","BELL-CVE-2024-50251","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-50251","GHSA-gmgf-ff9x-r369","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-50251"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel netfilter payload handling allows attackers to trigger a kernel crash via crafted network packets, causing denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":6.2,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: nft_payload: sanitize offset and length before calling skb_checksum()\n\nIf access to offset + length is larger than the skbuff length, then\nskb_checksum() triggers BUG_ON().\n\nskb_checksum() internally subtracts the length parameter while iterating\nover skbuff, BUG_ON(len) at the end of it checks that the expected\nlength to be included in the checksum calculation is fully consumed.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2024-11-12","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2024-11-12T08:08:55Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/slavin-ayu/CVE-2024-50251-PoC","stars":2,"title":"Just a local Dos bug in Linux kernel"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"netfilter: nft_payload: sanitize offset and length before calling skb_checksum()","id":"CVE-2024-50251","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"mlxsw: spectrum_ipip: Fix memory leak when changing remote IPv6 address","id":"CVE-2024-50252"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"fsdax: dax_unshare_iter needs to copy entire blocks","id":"CVE-2024-50250"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2024-11-09","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel netfilter payload handling allows attackers to trigger a kernel crash via crafted network packets, causing denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50251/"}
