In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_conncount: update last_gc only when GC has been performed Currently last_gc is being updated everytime a new connection is tracked, that means that it is updated even if a GC wasn't performed. With a sufficiently high packet rate, it is possible to always bypass the GC, causing the list to grow infinitely. Update the last_gc value only when a GC has been actually performed.
