Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack: remove sprintf usage
Replace it with scnprintf, the buffer sizes are expected to be large enough to hold the result, no need for snprintf+overflow check.
Increase buffer size in mangle_content_len() while at it.
