Candidate: CVE-2006-2275
References:
http://git.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=7c3ceb4fb9667f34f1599a062efecf4cdc4a4ce5
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."
Notes:
jmm> Seems like an ABI-breaker, the sctp_chunk struct is changed in the
jmm> upstream fix, this issue alone is not worth an ABI bump, a fix will
jmm> be postponed for now
