No local access or network adjacency is required.\nAC:H - Exploitation requires statistically extracting nanosecond-scale timing deltas from the early-exit `memcmp` across network jitter and target CPU load, and on 64-bit architectures with `HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS` the loop leaks only 8-byte-granular prefixes \u2014 conditions the attacker cannot influence. The bad-signature path is a silent `sctp_sf_pdiscard()`, so no direct request/response oracle exists.\nPR:N - The COOKIE ECHO path is reached pre-authentication on any listening SCTP socket, with the attacker supplying both the cookie contents and the matching verification tag, so no credentials or prior association state are needed. Cookie HMAC signing is enabled by default via `CONFIG_SCTP_DEFAULT_COOKIE_HMAC_MD5`.\nUI:N - The vulnerable comparisons execute automatically in the SCTP receive path for every COOKIE ECHO or AUTH chunk that reaches a listening endpoint or established association. No action by any local user or administrator is involved.\nS:U - The forged-MAC consequences \u2014 spoofed association establishment, out-of-bounds reads, and softirq hangs \u2014 all occur inside the kernel of the targeted host. No hypervisor, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - A forged cookie MAC yields a fully attacker-controlled `struct sctp_cookie` whose unvalidated `raw_addr_list_len` drives an unbounded walk in `sctp_raw_to_bind_addrs()`, reading far past the skb. A forged SCTP-AUTH HMAC additionally allows ASCONF Add-IP injection to redirect an established association\u0027s data stream to the attacker.\nI:H - Recovering the MAC constitutes a complete bypass of SCTP\u0027s state-cookie and SCTP-AUTH authentication, letting an off-path attacker forge cookies to establish spoofed associations and inject arbitrary authenticated chunks into existing ones. The attacker-controlled cookie is copied wholesale into the new association via `memcpy(\u0026retval-\u003ec, bear_cookie, ...)` and fed to `sctp_process_init()`.\nA:H - With the cookie MAC forged, `sctp_raw_to_bind_addrs()` at this commit has no bounds checks \u2014 a zero-length address parameter makes `addrs_len -= len` never progress, producing an infinite loop in softirq context, while an oversized length causes an OOB read that can oops the kernel. Forged AUTH chunks also permit tearing down established associations."

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
