For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit
<URL:http://www.freebsd.org/security/>.

I. Background

SACK (Selective Acknowledgement) is an extension to the TCP/IP protocol
that allows hosts to acknowledge the receipt of some, but not all, of
the packets sent, thereby reducing the cost of retransmissions.

II. Problem Description

When insufficient memory is available to handle an incoming selective
acknowledgement, the TCP/IP stack may enter an infinite loop.

III. Impact

By opening a TCP connection and sending a carefully crafted series of
packets, an attacker may be able to cause a denial of service.

IV. Workaround

On FreeBSD 5.4, the net.inet.tcp.sack.enable sysctl can be used to
disable the use of SACK:

# sysctl net.inet.tcp.sack.enable=0

No workaround is available for FreeBSD 5.3.

V. Solution

Perform one of the following:

1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 5-STABLE or to the RELENG_5_4 or
RELENG_5_3 security branch dated after the correction date.

2) To patch your present system:

The following patch have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 5.3 and
5.4 systems.

a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.

# fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CE...:08/sack.patch
# fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CE...sack.patch.asc

b) Apply the patch.

# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch

c) Recompile your kernel as described in
<URL:http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html> and reboot the
system.

VI. Correction details
