Adding the 65,536th transport wraps the count to zero. SCTP sock_diag uses transport_count to reserve the INET_DIAG_PEERS payload, then copies one sockaddr_storage for every entry in transport_addr_list. After the wrap, a diagnostic dump reserves an empty payload and writes 8 MiB of peer addresses past the skb tail. Reject a new unique peer when transport_count has reached U16_MAX. Perform the check after the existing-peer lookup so a duplicate address continues to return its existing transport at the limit. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-74469 to this issue.

Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2026-74469 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: net/sctp/associola.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/546221b86ceeba0d8fec92d46a0604bb7b62be07 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/09e722030e8148ba4ed1e42c6b2ea57bda9f9895 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4ba5bf7ed50f235ea4581de8e7a0002f4ed287b0 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6201cd1d70f1670c5b31ac506e7ab2fa7b8e7f75 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bd0e9289e2642f6a5c54faad304ce0f41e926d22
