"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on\n\n__sctp_outq_flush_rtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's\ntransmitted list without updating chunk->transport:\n\n\tif (chunk->tsn_gap_acked) {\n\t\tlist_move_tail(&chunk->transmitted_list,\n\t\t\t &transport->transmitted);\n\t\tcontinue;\n\t}\n\nThe chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still\nnames a different one. If that transport is removed - sctp_assoc_rm_peer()\nfrom an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctp_transport_free() RCU-frees it and the chunk\nis left with a dangling pointer. sctp_assoc_rm_peer() scrubs\npeer->transmitted and asoc->outqueue.out_chunk_list, but the chunk is on\nneither.\n\nThe pointer is not followed while tsn_gap_acked is set. A SACK that\nreneges on the TSN clears the flag, and the next SACK reaches\n\n\ttchunk->transport->flight_size -= sctp_data_size(tchunk);\n\ninside the freed transport. KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free read in\nsctp_check_transmitted(), freed from sctp_assoc_rm_peer(). Both the\nremoval and the SACKs come from the association peer.\n\nSet chunk->transport at the move. The ordinary resend path needs nothing:\nit reaches its list_move_tail() only after sctp_packet_append_chunk()\nreturned SCTP_XMIT_OK, and __sctp_packet_append_chunk() has rebound the\nchunk by then.\n\nDiscovered by XBOW, triaged by Baul Lee <baul.lee@xbow.com>"

"value": "AV:N - The bug is reached when the kernel SCTP stack processes inbound SACK and ASCONF chunks from a remote association peer via sctp_rcv()/sctp_inq_push(), with no local syscall or ioctl required on the victim.\nAC:L - The remote peer controls the SCTP protocol sequence (gap SACKs, ADDIP multihoming, ASCONF Delete-IP, and SACK reneging) needed to strand a chunk and free its transport; no attacker-uncontrollable race or rare memory layout is required.\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 SACK and ASCONF 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 - KASAN reports a slab use-after-free read through dangling chunk->transport in sctp_check_transmitted(); UAF on sctp_transport objects can be groomed for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The UAF dereference performs flight_size arithmetic on a freed sctp_transport slab object, enabling heap grooming and arbitrary kernel write or control-flow hijack primitives typical of SCTP transport UAFs.\nA:H - Accessing freed transport memory during SACK processing can cause kernel oops/panic and repeatable remote denial of service against any SCTP endpoint handling the malicious peer traffic."
