Description
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."
Affected configurations
• lksctp stream control transmission protocol (< 2.6.17)
• canonical ubuntu linux 5.04
• canonical ubuntu linux 5.10
• canonical ubuntu linux 6.06
