DEBIAN-CVE-2026-74588
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on _sctpoutqflushrtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's transmitted list without updating chunk->transport: if (chunk->tsngapacked) { listmovetail(&chunk->transmittedlist, &transport->transmitted); continue; } The chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still names a different one. If that transport is removed - sctpassocrmpeer() from an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctptransportfree() RCU-frees it and the chunk is left with a dangling pointer. sctpassocrmpeer() scrubs peer->transmitted and asoc->outqueue.outchunklist, but the chunk is on neither. The pointer is not followed while tsngapacked is set. A SACK that reneges on the TSN clears the flag, and the next SACK reaches tchunk->transport->flightsize -= sctpdatasize(tchunk); inside the freed transport. KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free read in sctpchecktransmitted(), freed from sctpassocrmpeer(). Both the removal and the SACKs come from the association peer. Set chunk->transport at the move. The ordinary resend path needs nothing: it reaches its listmovetail() only after sctppacketappendchunk() returned SCTPXMITOK, and _sctppacketappendchunk() has rebound the chunk by then.
