+Subject: sctp: avoid BUG_ON on sctp_wait_for_sndbuf
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/2dcab598484185dea7ec22219c76dcdd59e3cb90
+Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-5986
+
+Alexander Popov reported that an application may trigger a BUG_ON in
+sctp_wait_for_sndbuf if the socket tx buffer is full, a thread is
+waiting on it to queue more data and meanwhile another thread peels off
+the association being used by the first thread.
+
+This patch replaces the BUG_ON call with a proper error handling. It
+will return -EPIPE to the original sendmsg call, similarly to what would
+have been done if the association wasn't found in the first place.
