The sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce function in net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not validate certain auth_enable and auth_capable fields before making an sctp_sf_authenticate call, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via an SCTP handshake with a modified INIT chunk and a crafted AUTH chunk before a COOKIE_ECHO chunk.

La función sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce en net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 3.13.6 no valida ciertos campos auth_enable y auth_capable antes de hacer una llamada sctp_sf_authenticate, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (referencia a puntero NULL y caída del sistema) a través de un SCTP handshake con un fragmento INIT modificado y un fragmento AUTH manipulado anterior a un fragmento COOKIE_ECHO.
