The DEL-IP for L passes the D8 check and\ncalls sctp_assoc_rm_peer() on the transport that asconf->transport still\npoints at, freeing it (RCU-deferred). The following wildcard DEL-IP then\nreuses the now-dangling asconf->transport in sctp_assoc_set_primary() and\nsctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(): set_primary() dereferences the freed\ntransport (->ipaddr, ->state) and plants the dangling pointer into\nasoc->peer.primary_path / active_path, and del_nonprimary_peers(), keeping\nonly the pointer that is no longer on the list, removes every real\ntransport, leaving the association with a transport_count of 0 and\nprimary_path/active_path pointing at freed memory.\n\nReject a DEL-IP that targets the transport the ASCONF is being processed\nagainst, mirroring the existing source-address guard, so the wildcard\nbranch can never reuse a freed transport.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-04T06:23:23.339+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T20:48:42.076+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
