[nf,v3,1/1] netfilter: validate L4 headers after userspace packet writes
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netfilter-devel/patch/587830a57a593c4b621f7e8e94b2ddc73e6becb0.1785468829.git.zhilinz@nebusec.ai/
This is related to nfqueue specifically and it also was posted a few
hours before the same day?
Thanks.
