| Subject: CVE-2022-49198: mptcp: Fix crash due to tcp_tsorted_anchor was initialized before release skb |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| mptcp: Fix crash due to tcp_tsorted_anchor was initialized before release skb |
| |
| Got crash when doing pressure test of mptcp: |

| |
| In __mptcp_alloc_tx_skb skb was allocated and skb->tcp_tsorted_anchor will |
| be initialized, in under memory pressure situation sk_wmem_schedule will |
| return false and then kfree_skb. In this case skb->_skb_refdst is not null |
| because_skb_refdst and tcp_tsorted_anchor are stored in the same mem, and |
| kfree_skb will try to release dst and cause crash. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
