CVE-2026-64410 — netfilter: flowtable: IPIP tunnel hardware offload is not yet support
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: flowtable: IPIP tunnel hardware offload is not yet support No driver supports for IPIP tunnels yet, give up early on setting up the hardware offload for this scenario. This patch adds a stub that can be enhanced to add more configuration that are currently not supported. As of now, the offload work is enqueued to the worker, then ignored if the hardware offload configuration is not supported. Check the NF_FLOW_HW flag to know if this entry was already tried once to be offloaded so this is not retried on refresh when unsupported. Move NF_FLOW_HW flag check to nf_flow_offload_add(). If this NF_FLOW_HW flag is unset the _del and _stats variants are never called. This can be updated later on to skip hardware offload work to be queued in case hardware offload does not support it.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- Technical severity (critical)+10
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux, Linux Linux Kernel).
- The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
- Apply the fixed version or the patch documented under Remediation.
- Search available logs for exploit probes, errors and authentication anomalies.
