CVE-2018-5703

The tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock function in net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c in the Linux kernel, through 4.14.11, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (slab out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving in-kernel TLS implementation. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.
