CVE-2026-100070

netfilter: nf_nat_sip: rewind offset when NAT shrinks the packet

Published Sep 25, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_nat_sip: rewind offset when NAT shrinks the packet

sashiko says:
If map_addr() changes the packet length, such as when the public NAT IP
string is shorter or longer than the internal IP, coff will still point to
the offset relative to the pre-mangled packet.
If the packet shrinks, coff could overshoot the correct position,
potentially causing the next ct_sip_parse_header_uri() call to silently
skip bytes and miss subsequent Contact headers. Could this lead to a
failure to NAT those subsequent headers and leak internal network details?
