Package: iproute2
Version: 4.15.0-3.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Patch found upstream: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg486801.html


When ss is invoked with the no-header flag, if the query doesn't return
any result, render() is called with 'buffer' uninitialized. This
currently leads to a segfault. Ensure that buffer is initialized before
rendering.

The bug can be triggered with: ss -H sport = 100000
