Description: The dccp_disconnect function in net/dccp/proto.c in the Linux kernel through 4.14.3 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (use-after-free) via an AF_UNSPEC connect system call during the DCCP_LISTEN state.

A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
