NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-livepatch-4_12_14-150100_197_134-default package and not the kernel-livepatch-4_12_14-150100_197_134-default package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

A remote denial of service vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel’s TIPC kernel module. The while loop in tipc_link_xmit() hits an unknown state while attempting to parse SKBs, which are not in the queue. Sending two small UDP packets to a system with a UDP bearer results in the CPU utilization for the system to instantly spike to 100%, causing a denial of service condition.
