Summary
CVE-2026-74469 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sctp: prevent peer transport count overflow

sctpassocaddpeer() increments the association's 16-bit transportcount for every new unique peer. Adding the 65,536th transport wraps the count to zero.

SCTP sockdiag uses transportcount to reserve the INETDIAGPEERS payload, then copies one sockaddrstorage for every entry in transportaddr_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 transportcount has reached U16MAX. Perform the check after the existing-peer lookup so a duplicate address continues to return its existing transport at the limit.
