** Description changed:

- net: sctp: remote memory pressure from excessive queueing
+ The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.17.4 allows remote
+ attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by
+ triggering a large number of chunks in an association's output queue, as
+ demonstrated by ASCONF probes, related to net/sctp/inqueue.c and
+ net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c.
