Because you shouldn't have to do mitigations for this level of severity while waiting weeks for OS patch. I did that, but now I'm waiting for patch to unwind my mitigations.

Why do you ask such simple and obvious questions!? :-P

nft add table ip cve_2026_98432

nft add chain ip cve_2026_98432 pre '{ type filter hook prerouting priority -300; }'

nft add rule ip cve_2026_98432 pre meta l4proto tcp ip hdrlength gt 5 counter drop
