Ubuntu 14.04 LTS : Linux kernel (Utopic HWE) vulnerabilities (USN-2797-1)

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2797-1 advisory. It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not check if a new IPv6 MTU set by a user space application was valid. A remote attacker could forge a route...

Linux kernel buffer overflow vulnerability (CNVD-2015-06888)

The Linux kernel is the kernel used by the operating system Linux, released by the Linux Foundation in the United States. A security vulnerability in the 'sctpinit' function in the net/sctp/protocol.c file in Linux kernel versions 4.2.2 and earlier stems from the presence of a failure to correctl...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-5283

The sctpinit function in net/sctp/protocol.c in the Linux kernel before 4.2.3 has an incorrect sequence of protocol-initialization steps, which allows local users to cause a denial of service panic or memory corruption by creating SCTP sockets before all of the steps have finished...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-3212

Race condition in net/sctp/socket.c in the Linux kernel before 4.1.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service list corruption and panic via a rapid series of system calls related to sockets, as demonstrated by setsockopt calls...

kernel: net: slab corruption from use after free on INIT collisions

A use-after-free flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation handled authentication key reference counting during INIT collisions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system...

kernel: net: sctp: NULL pointer dereference in af->from_addr_param on malformed packet

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's SCTP implementation validated INIT chunks when performing Address Configuration Change ASCONF. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system by sending a specially crafted SCTP packet to trigger a NULL pointer dereference on the system...
