linux kernel is vulnerable to denial of service (DOS) attacks. This exists because the compat IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE and IP6T_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt implementations in the netfilter subsystem allows malicious attacker to gain privileges by leveraging in-container root access to provide a crafted offset value that triggers an unintended decrement which results in a denial of service condition.
