CVE-2024-1151

Kernel: stack overflow problem in open vswitch kernel module leading to dos

Published: 2/11/2024 Last updated: 11/7/2025 Reserved: 2/1/2024

A vulnerability was reported in the Open vSwitch sub-component in the Linux Kernel. The flaw occurs when a recursive operation of code push recursively calls into the code block. The OVS module does not validate the stack depth, pushing too many frames and causing a stack overflow. As a result, this can lead to a crash or other related issues.
