    High [CVE-2026-68376] fix auth_hmacs array size in struct sctp_cookie

    CVE-2026-68376Source published Source updated

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: fix auth_hmacs array size in struct sctp_cookie The auth_hmacs array in struct sctp_cookie is supposed to store a complete SCTP_AUTH_HMAC_ALGO parameter, which consists of a struct sctp_paramhdr followed by N HMAC identifiers. However, the array size was calculated using an extra 2 bytes instead of sizeof(struct sctp_paramhdr), which is 4 bytes. When four HMAC identifiers are configured, the HMAC-ALGO parameter stored in the endpoint is larger than the auth_hmacs buffer in the cookie. As a result, sctp_association_init() copies beyond the end of auth_hmacs when initializing the association, corrupting the adjacent auth_chunks field. This can lead to an invalid HMAC identifier being accepted and later cause an…

    Mitigation guidance
    • To prevent the SCTP kernel module from loading, blacklist it by creating a file `/etc/modprobe.d/disable-sctp.conf` with the content `blacklist sctp`. Regenerate the initramfs using `dracut -f -v` (RHEL 8/9/10) or `mkinitrd -f -v /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)` (RHEL 7), then reboot the system. This action may affect applications dependent on SCTP.
