Package: kfreebsd-10 Version: 10.1~svn274115-1 Severity: grave Tags: security patch
Hi, A unprivileged local DoS was reported in the FreeBSD kernel implementation of SCTP: https://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-15:03.sctp.asc This only affects systems serving SCTP connections. A patch from upstream should be uploaded soon fixing this in kfreebsd-10. kfreebsd-9 in stable is not affected, since the last security upload 9.0-10+deb70.8 disabled this protocol. kfreebsd-8 does not receive regular security updates, but we may decide to disable SCTP there too. (It's expected nobody would be using SCTP in GNU/kFreeBSD squeeze or prior, because no userland tools had been ported yet). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: kfreebsd-amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: kFreeBSD 9.0-2-amd64-xenhvm-ipsec Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
