Subject: [PATCH] sctp: fix null deref in sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce()
Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2025 19:15:55 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250922161557.2716-2-a.simakov@securitycode.ru> (raw)

The check of new_asoc->peer.adaptation_ind can fail,
leaving ai_ev uninitialized. In that case, the code
can jump to the nomem_authdev label and later call
sctp_ulpevent_free() with a null ai_ev pointer.
Leading to a potential null dereference.

Add check of ai_ev pointer before call of
sctp_ulpevent_free function.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 30f6ebf65bc4 ("sctp: add SCTP_AUTH_NO_AUTH type for AUTHENTICATION_EVENT")
