The same defect exists in the DCCP IPv6 receive path.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race by sending a burst of concurrent SYNs from different source ports/addresses, which RSS/RPS distributes across CPUs that all enter `tcp_v6_do_rcv()` on the same listener with no socket lock held. No memory layout, timing window outside attacker influence, or victim state is required, and syzkaller reproduces it routinely.\nPR:N - The racing code runs while processing a SYN on a listening socket, entirely before connection establishment or any authentication, so no credentials of any kind are needed. Setting the `IPV6_RECV*` option that arms the path is done by the victim server (or by an unprivileged local user on their own listener), not by the attacker.\nUI:N - Triggering requires only that packets be sent to an already-listening socket; no action by any local user or administrator is needed.\nS:U - The corrupted state (`sk->sk_forward_alloc`, `tcp_memory_allocated`, memcg skmem counters) and the resulting warning/panic are all within the kernel's own security authority, with no crossing into a hypervisor, IOMMU, or other separate authority.\nC:N - The defect is a non-atomic read-modify-write on integer accounting counters; it produces no out-of-bounds read, no use-after-free, and no path by which memory contents or kernel pointers are disclosed to the attacker.\nI:N - No attacker-controlled data is written and no memory corruption primitive is created — only the socket's own memory-accounting counters become inconsistent, which is not a modification of protected data or control flow.\nA:H - The imbalance trips `WARN_ON_ONCE(sk_forward_alloc_get(sk))` in `inet_sock_destruct()` from softirq context, which is an immediate kernel panic on `panic_on_warn` systems, and the over-reclaim corrupts the global `tcp_memory_allocated` counter and memcg skmem accounting, breaking system-wide TCP memory limits (unbounded growth toward OOM, or permanent memory pressure across all TCP sockets).
