kernel: Out of bounds read in inet_diag_msg_sctp{,l}addr_fill() and sctp_get_sctp_info() in SCTP stack

A kernel data leak due to an out-of-bound read was found in the Linux kernel in inetdiagmsgsctp,laddrfill and sctpgetsctpinfo functions present since version 4.7-rc1 through version 4.13. A data leak happens when these functions fill in sockaddr data structures used to export socket's diagnostic...

Intel Puma Denial of Service Vulnerability

Intel Puma is a system-on-chip SoC from Intel. Intel Puma suffers from a denial of service vulnerability that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service performance degradation by sending a moderate amount of small packets to many TCP or UDP ports...

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS : Linux kernel vulnerabilities (USN-3265-1)

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3265-1 advisory. It was discovered that a use-after-free flaw existed in the filesystem encryption subsystem in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause...

Cisco NetFlow Generation Appliance SCTP decoder denial of service vulnerability

Cisco NetFlow Generation Appliance is the United States Cisco Cisco company's set of scalable for data centers to achieve traffic visibility solutions. A denial of service vulnerability exists in the processing of SCTP messages by the SCTP decoder in the Cisco NetFlow Generation Appliance. A remo...

kernel: Slab out-of-bounds access in sctp_sf_ootb()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of the SCTP protocol. A remote attacker could trigger an out-of-bounds read with an offset of up to 64kB potentially causing the system to crash...

Moderate: Red Hat Security Advisory: kernel security and bug fix update

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 Extended Update Support. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for...

DEBIAN-CVE-2016-2774

ISC DHCP 4.1.x before 4.1-ESV-R13 and 4.2.x and 4.3.x before 4.3.4 does not restrict the number of concurrent TCP sessions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service INSIST assertion failure or request-processing outage by establishing many sessions...

CVE-2016-1879

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP module in FreeBSD 9.3 before p33, 10.1 before p26, and 10.2 before p9, when the kernel is configured for IPv6, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service assertion failure or NULL pointer dereference and kernel panic via a crafted ICMPv6...

Null pointer dereference

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP module in FreeBSD 9.3 before p33, 10.1 before p26, and 10.2 before p9, when the kernel is configured for IPv6, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service assertion failure or NULL pointer dereference and kernel panic via a crafted ICMPv6...

FreeBSD ICMP v6 SCTP Packet Header Denial of Service Vulnerability

FreeBSD is a set of Unix-like free operating systems from the FreeBSD project, run by the Core Team team. A denial of service vulnerability exists in the FreeBSD ICMP v6 SCTP packet header, which arises due to a failure to properly handle the SCTP protocol packet header and is triggered when an...

DEBIAN-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...

kernel: iptables restriction bypass if a protocol handler kernel module not loaded

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem handled generic protocol tracking. As demonstrated in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP case, a remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass intended iptables rule restrictions when the associated connection tracking...

kernel: net: sctp: remote memory pressure from excessive queueing

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP implementation handled the association's output queue. A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets that would cause the system to use an excessive amount of memory, leading to a denial of service...

CVE-2014-8612

Multiple array index errors in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP module in FreeBSD 10.1 before p5, 10.0 before p17, 9.3 before p9, and 8.4 before p23 allow local users to 1 gain privileges via the stream id to the setsockopt function, when setting the SCTIPSSVALUE option, or 2 read...

kernel: net: sctp: remote memory pressure from excessive queueing

A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP implementation handled the association's output queue. A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets that would cause the system to use an excessive amount of memory, leading to a denial of service...
