      <title>CVE-2026-98614 — sctp: avoid livelock while updating retransmit path</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-98614</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;sctp: avoid livelock while updating retransmit path&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;sctp_assoc_update_retran_path() can loop forever when every remaining
transport, including retran_path, is SCTP_UNCONFIRMED: the state check
runs before the wraparound test, so the loop cannot observe that it has
completed a full pass.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this by considering a transport only when it is not UNCONFIRMED,
then checking whether the walk has returned to retran_path. This makes
the full-pass termination independent of the transport state while
preserving the existing fallback selection semantics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also restore the NULL guard around the retran_path assignment. In the
all-UNCONFIRMED case there is no eligible replacement transport, and
installing NULL would leave later retransmit-path users and the debug
print with a NULL path.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
