"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk\n\naddip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal\nASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer.\n\nHowever, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without\nclearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling,\nsctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes\nsctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves\nthe pointer dangling.\n\nA delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(),\nwhich accesses the stale chunk and passes it to sctp_process_asconf_ack(),\ncausing a use-after-free and a second release.\n\nClearing the pointer exposes a race with T4 expiry. Peer restart handling\nqueues the timer stop before the purge, but SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP uses\ntimer_delete(), which does not wait for a callback already running on\nanother CPU. Such a callback can reach sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() after\nthe purge and dereference NULL.\n\nClear addip_last_asconf after releasing the cached chunk, and make\nsctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() consume a stale T4 expiry if no outstanding\nASCONF remains."

"value": "AV:N - The UAF is triggered when the kernel processes inbound SCTP COOKIE-ECHO (peer restart) and ASCONF-ACK chunks from a remote association peer via sctp_rcv()/sctp_inq_push()/sctp_do_sm(), with no local syscall required on the victim.\nAC:L - The remote SCTP peer controls the full protocol sequence—establishing an ADDIP-capable association, waiting for the victim's outstanding ASCONF, sending COOKIE-ECHO restart to purge queues, then delivering a delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK—without attacker-uncontrollable races or memory layout.\nPR:N - Exploitation requires only network access as an established SCTP association peer sending authenticated protocol traffic; no local Linux account, capability, or namespace privilege is needed on the victim host.\nUI:N - No victim user action is required beyond normal automated SCTP server/client operation; the attacker drives the entire trigger sequence with crafted COOKIE-ECHO and ASCONF-ACK packets on the existing association.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel memory corruption and potential privilege escalation within the host kernel; it does not cross a VM, container, or IOMMU security boundary.\nC:H - sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack() and sctp_process_asconf_ack() dereference the stale addip_last_asconf pointer to read freed sctp_chunk and skb metadata; UAF on slab-allocated chunk objects enables heap grooming for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The stale pointer causes sctp_process_asconf_ack() to perform a second sctp_chunk_free() on an already-freed chunk, yielding a kmem_cache double-free that can be leveraged for arbitrary kernel write or control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Dereferencing the freed cached ASCONF chunk during ASCONF-ACK processing can cause kernel oops/panic and repeatable remote denial of service against any SCTP endpoint handling the malicious peer traffic."
