Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
netfilter: xtables: restrict several matches to inet family<br />
<br />
This is a partial revert of:<br />
<br />
commit ab4f21e6fb1c ("netfilter: xtables: use NFPROTO_UNSPEC in more extensions")<br />
<br />
to allow ipv4 and ipv6 only.<br />
<br />
- xt_mac<br />
- xt_owner<br />
- xt_physdev<br />
<br />
These extensions are not used by ebtables in userspace.<br />
<br />
Moreover, xt_realm is only for ipv4, since dst->tclassid is ipv4<br />
specific.
