Affected: Linux

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

net: flow_dissector: use DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE

The following splat is easy to reproduce upstream as well as in -stable kernels. Florian Westphal provided the following commit:

d1dab4f71d37 ("net: add and use __skb_get_hash_symmetric_net")

but this complementary fix has been also suggested by Willem de Bruijn and it can be easily backported to -stable kernel which consists in using DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE instead to silence the following splat given __skb_get_hash() is used by the nftables tracing infrastructure to to identify packets in traces.
