In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: xt_connmark: reject invalid shift parameters Revision 2 of the CONNMARK target accepts user-controlled shift parameters and applies them to 32-bit mark values in connmark_tg_shift(). A shift_bits value of 32 or more triggers an undefined-shift bug when the rule is evaluated. Invalid shift_dir values are also accepted and silently fall back to the left-shift path. Reject invalid revision-2 shift parameters in connmark_tg_check() so malformed rules fail at installation time, before they can reach the packet path.

The remote Oracle Linux 8 / 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2026-500249 advisory.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - netfilter: xt_connmark: reject invalid shift parameters Revision 2 of the CONNMARK target accepts user-     controlled shift parameters and applies them to 32-bit mark values in connmark_tg_shift(). A shift_bits     value of 32 or more triggers an undefined-shift bug when the rule is evaluated. Invalid shift_dir values     are also accepted and silently fall back to the left-shift path. Reject invalid revision-2 shift     parameters in connmark_tg_check() so malformed rules fail at installation time, before they can reach the     packet path. (CVE-2026-72347)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

An update of the linux package has been released.
