Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nft_limit: avoid possible divide error in nft_limit_init

div_u64() divides u64 by u32.

nft_limit_init() wants to divide u64 by u64, use the appropriate math function (div64_u64)

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
