commit b6ffe7671b24689c09faa5675dd58f93758a97ae upstream. In one of the fallbacks that SCTP has for identifying an association for an incoming packet, it looks for AddIp chunk (from ASCONF) and take a peek. Thing is, at this stage nothing was validating that the chunk actually had enough content for that, allowing the peek to happen over uninitialized memory. Similar check already exists in actual asconf handling in sctp_verify_asconf(). Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
