A flaw was found in Suricata. This flaw allows a remote attacker to cause an IPv4 and IPv6 flow to be treated as identical due to a hash collision. This occurs when their raw address words, ports, protocol, VLAN, recursion level, live device, and hash bucket align, without proper comparison of the IP family. This can lead to incorrect flow state, enabling an attacker to bypass detection mechanisms or achieve IP-only bypass. Red Hat Product Security has determined that this vulnerability does not affect any currently supported Red Hat product. This assessment may evolve based on further analysis and discovery. For more information about this vulnerability and the products it affects, please see the linked references. The CVSS score(s) listed for this vulnerability do not reflect the associated product's status, and are included for informational purposes to better understand the severity of this vulnerability.
