How to fix?

Upgrade Oracle:6 dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.21.1.el6uek to version 0:0.4.5-3.el6 or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2018-4109.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.21.1.el6uek package and not the dtrace-modules-3.8.13-118.21.1.el6uek package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

net/netfilter/nfnetlink_cthelper.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.4 does not require the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for new, get, and del operations, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions because the nfnl_cthelper_list data structure is shared across all net namespaces.
