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-2025-21826 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-2025-21826/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-21826/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-21826","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-21826/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-21826","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-21826","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-21826","GHSA-8376-779w-5hcf","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-21826","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-21826"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel netfilter","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A logic error in Linux kernel netfilter allows mismatching set key lengths, potentially leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: nf_tables: reject mismatching sum of field_len with set key length\n\nThe field length description provides the length of each separated key\nfield in the concatenation, each field gets rounded up to 32-bits to\ncalculate the pipapo rule width from pipapo_init().
