Summary:F5 BIG-IP is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
F5 BIG-IP is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
CVE-2014-3673
The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(system crash) via a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c.

CVE-2014-3687
The sctp_assoc_lookup_asconf_ack function in net/sctp/associola.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel
through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via duplicate ASCONF chunks that
trigger an incorrect uncork within the side-effect interpreter.

Vulnerability Impact:
Remote attackers may be able to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) using malformed or duplicate ASCONF chunk.

Solution:
See the referenced vendor advisory for a solution.
