CVE-2004-2013 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Integer overflow in the SCTP_SOCKOPT_DEBUG_NAME SCTP socket option in socket.c in the Linux kernel 2.4.25 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary code via an optlen value of -1, which causes kmalloc to allocate 0 bytes of memory.. EPSS estimates a 0.62% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
