CVE-2018-1000026: Input Validation

First published: Mon Feb 05 2018(Updated: )

Improper validation in the bnx2x network card driver of the Linux kernel version 4.15 can allow for denial of service (DoS) attacks via a packet with a gso_size larger than ~9700 bytes. Untrusted guest VMs can exploit this vulnerability in the host machine, causing a crash in the network card.
