NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dtrace-modules-3.8.13-55.1.8.el7uek package and not the dtrace-modules-3.8.13-55.1.8.el7uek package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_generic.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18 generates incorrect conntrack entries during handling of certain iptables rule sets for the SCTP, DCCP, GRE, and UDP-Lite protocols, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via packets with disallowed port numbers.
