Created: Sep 19, 2025    Updated: Oct 14, 2025
Resolved Date: Oct 13, 2025

Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 21
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  sctp: fix a potential overflow in sctp_ifwdtsn_skip  Currently, when traversing ifwdtsn skips with _sctp_walk_ifwdtsn, it only checks the pos against the end of the chunk. However, the data left for the last pos may be < sizeof(struct sctp_ifwdtsn_skip), and dereference it as struct sctp_ifwdtsn_skip may cause coverflow.  This patch fixes it by checking the pos against "the end of the chunk - sizeof(struct sctp_ifwdtsn_skip)" in sctp_ifwdtsn_skip, similar to sctp_fwdtsn_skip.
