CVE-2024-53122CVE-2024-53122
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: cope racing subflow creation in mptcp_rcv_space_adjust
Additional active subflows - i.e. created by the in kernel path
manager - are included into the subflow list before starting the
3whs.
A racing recvmsg() spooling data received on an already established
subflow would unconditionally call tcp_cleanup_rbuf() on all the
current subflows, potentially hitting a divide by zero error on
the newly created ones.
Explicitly check that the subflow is in a suitable state before
invoking tcp_cleanup_rbuf().
