Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Sun Solaris, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service. These issues are caused by errors in the SCTP protocol when processing specially crafted data, which may allow a local or remote unprivileged user to cause significant performance degradation or hang and panic the system or network devices, resulting in a denial of service condition.
