FKIE_CVE-2011-3188
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2012-05-24 23:55 - Updated: 2026-06-16 23:32
Severity
Summary
The (1) IPv4 and (2) IPv6 implementations in the Linux kernel before 3.1 use a modified MD4 algorithm to generate sequence numbers and Fragment Identification values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disrupted networking) or hijack network sessions by predicting these values and sending crafted packets.
