Descriptions

net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34, when addip_enable and auth_enable are used, does not consider the amount of zero padding during calculation of chunk lengths for (1) INIT and (2) INIT ACK chunks, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via crafted packet data.

net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c del kernel de Linux en versiones anteriores a 2.6.34, si se utiliza addip_enable y auth_enable, no considera la cantidad de "padding" durante el cálculo de la longitud para los segmentos ("chunks")(1) INIT y (2) INIT ACK, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (OOPS) a través de paquetes modificados.
