Amendment

The SLES security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for SLES:15.1.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-source-rt package and not the kernel-source-rt package as distributed by SLES.

In the Linux kernel before 5.5.8, get_raw_socket in drivers/vhost/net.c lacks validation of an sk_family field, which might allow attackers to trigger kernel stack corruption via crafted system calls.
