** Description changed:

- [Creating multiple sockets when SCTP module isn't loaded leads to kernel
- panic]
+ The sctp_init function in net/sctp/protocol.c in the Linux kernel before
+ 4.2.3 has an incorrect sequence of protocol-initialization steps, which
+ allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic or memory
+ corruption) by creating SCTP sockets before all of the steps have
+ finished.
  
  Break-Fix: 4db67e808640e3934d82ce61ee8e2e89fd877ba8
