the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsctp: sysctl: udp_port: avoid using current->nsproxy\n\nAs mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net'\nstructure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons:\n\n- Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only\n  from the opener's netns.\n\n- current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops'\n  (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by\n  syzbot [1] using acct(2).\n\nThe 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using\ncontainer_of().\n\nNote that table->data could also be used directly, but that would\nincrease the size of this fix, while 'sctp.ctl_sock' still needs to be\nretrieved from 'net' structure."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/sctp/sysctl.c"],"versions":[{"version":"046c052b475e7119b6a30e3483e2888fc606a2f8","lessThan":"0a0966312ac3eedd7f5f2a766ed4702df39a9a65","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"046c052b475e7119b6a30e3483e2888fc606a2f8","lessThan":"e919197fb8616331f5dc81e4c3cc3d12769cb725","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"046c052b475e7119b6a30e3483e2888fc606a2f8","lessThan":"55627918febdf9d71107a1e68d1528dc591c9a15","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"046c052b475e7119b6a30e3483e2888fc606a2f8","lessThan":"5b77d73f3be5102720fb685b9e6900e3500e1096","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"046c052b475e7119b6a30e3483e2888fc606a2f8","lessThan":"c10377bbc1972d858eaf0ab366a311b39f8ef1b6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/sctp/sysctl.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.11","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.11","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.177","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.125","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.72","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.10","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.13","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.11","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.177"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.125"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.72"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.13"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0a0966312ac3eedd7f5f2a766ed4702df39a9a65"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e919197fb8616331f5dc81e4c3cc3d12769cb725"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/55627918febdf9d71107a1e68d1528dc591c9a15"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5b77d73f3be5102720fb685b9e6900e3500e1096"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c10377bbc1972d858eaf0ab366a311b39f8ef1b6"}],"title":"sctp:
