In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: restrict SO_ATTACH_FILTER to priv users
This patch restricts the use of SO_ATTACH_FILTER (cBPF) on TCP sockets
to users with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
This blocks potential side-channel attack where an unprivileged application
attaches a filter to leak TCP sequence/acknowledgment numbers.
