Also restrict\nnft_fib_validate() to NFPROTO_IPV4/IPV6/INET so its NF_INET_* masks are\nnot applied to another family's hooks."

"value": "AV:N - Once a netdev egress fib rule is installed, evaluation runs on the packet transmit datapath (nf_hook_egress in __dev_queue_xmit); a remote peer can trigger it by causing the host to send matching IPv4/IPv6 traffic through the hooked interface, matching prior netfilter CNA treatment of pre-deployed nftables rules (e.g. CVE-2026-52998).\nAC:L - No race or uncontrollable victim state is required; with an affected egress fib rule present, the attacker reliably triggers the NULL dereference on the next matching outbound packet by controlling protocol headers and normal connection traffic.\nPR:N - Runtime exploitation needs only network traffic through the netdev egress hook; although installing the fib rule requires CAP_NET_ADMIN, validation incorrectly accepts it as legal, so orchestration or administrators can deploy it and remote attackers need no target credentials or local privileges.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is required beyond ordinary network traffic processing; the kernel automatically evaluates the fib expression on egress without mounts, file opens, or user prompts.\nS:U - Impact is a kernel NULL-pointer fault and host-wide denial of service within the same kernel/network-filtering security authority; it does not constitute VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or another cross-authority boundary change.\nC:N - The failure mode is a NULL pointer dereference of nft_in(pkt) on egress (in is NULL in nf_hook_state_init); there is no use-after-free, out-of-bounds read, or other attacker-controlled memory disclosure primitive.\nI:N - The bug does not corrupt writable memory or provide control-flow hijack; it only dereferences a NULL input device pointer during fib lookup/skipping and cannot modify kernel or user data beyond the immediate fault.\nA:H - The NULL dereference in nft_fib_netdev_eval/nft_fib4_eval/nft_fib6_eval on netdev egress causes a kernel oops/panic-class fault during packet transmission, denying system availability until reboot."
