Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2015-06-21 13:37:01 UTC 
CVE-2014-8160 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-8160):
  net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_generic.c in the Linux kernel before 3.18
  generates incorrect conntrack entries during handling of certain iptables
  rule sets for the SCTP, DCCP, GRE, and UDP-Lite protocols, which allows
  remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via packets with
  disallowed port numbers.
