The netns exit path does not stop these sockets, so a namespace\ncan be torn down while its SCTP UDP tunnel sockets are still installed.\n\nClose the UDP tunnel sockets from sctp_ctrlsock_exit() after unregistering\nthe per-net sysctl table. This prevents new sysctl writes from racing in\nwhile the sockets are being released, and closes the sockets before the\ncontrol socket is destroyed.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-10T11:59:28.072+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T20:58:55.541+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
