The ECNE chunk handling in Linux SCTP lksctp before 2.6.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service kernel panic via an unexpected chunk when the session is in CLOSED state...

Important: Red Hat Security Advisory: kernel security update

Updated kernel packages that fix several security issues in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 kernel are now available. This security advisory has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Linux kernel handles the basic functions of the operating syste...

CVE-2006-1857

The CVE-2006-1857 entry describes a buffer overflow in the SCTP implementation of the Linux kernel up to version 2.6.16.17. A remote attacker could trigger this via a malformed HB-ACK chunk, potentially causing a crash (DoS) and possibly executing arbitrary code. A fix is available in kernel 2.6....

CVE-2006-1858

CVE-2006-1858 affects the Linux kernel SCTP chunk length handling. The vulnerability arises when a chunk length is inconsistent with the actual parameters, enabling remote attackers to trigger a crash and potentially execute arbitrary code. Connected advisories show mitigations via kernel securit...

Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : kernel (MDKSA-2006:086)

A number of vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in the Linux 2.6 kernel : Prior to Linux kernel 2.6.16.5, the kernel does not properly handle uncanonical return addresses on Intel EM64T CPUs which causes the kernel exception handler to run on the user stack with the wrong GS...

Linux SCTP ECNE Chunk Handling Remote DoS

There is a flaw in the SCTP code included in Linux kernel versions 2.6.16.x that results in a kernel panic when an SCTP packet with an unexpected ECNE chunk is received in a CLOSED state. An attacker can leverage this flaw to crash the remote host with a single, possibly forged, packet. C Tenable...

Design/Logic Flaw

Linux SCTP lksctp before 2.6.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service infinite recursion and crash via a packet that contains two or more DATA fragments, which causes an skb pointer to refer back to itself when the full message is reassembled, leading to infinite recursion in the...

CVE-2006-2274

Linux SCTP lksctp before 2.6.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service infinite recursion and crash via a packet that contains two or more DATA fragments, which causes an skb pointer to refer back to itself when the full message is reassembled, leading to infinite recursion in the...

Design/Logic Flaw

Linux SCTP lksctp before 2.6.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service deadlock via a large number of small messages to a receiver application that cannot process the messages quickly enough, which leads to "spillover of the receive buffer."...
