Title:
CVE-2025-46836 fix breaks interface counters for ifconfig
Status in net-tools package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in net-tools package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
After the update for CVE-2025-46836 updated systems do not display
interface counters any more:
RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
Platform: 22.04.5 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)
What I expected: Non-zero counters, specifically the non-zero numbers
from /proc/net/dev
(Reporting as security=yes - hope that's okay, because it's
brokenness, apparently from the fix)
