"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvsock: treat TCP_CLOSING as once-established\n\nHandle the TCP_ESTABLISHED -> TCP_CLOSING transition on OP_RST, which can\nrace with the connect loop. Immediately break and return 0 on\nESTABLISHED/CLOSING. The return value of connect() should reflect what\nhappened up to the point the connection was established or failed. Events\nthat occur afterwards must not affect it. E.g. even if OP_RW has already\nset sk_err, connect() should still return 0, not ENOBUFS because of it.\nAdapt the inaccurate comment above signal_pending().\n\nResetting a socket that is still present in connected_table can lead to\nmemory corruption. The reporter noted lost transports for in-flight skbs,\nand I have reproduced crashes caused by re-insertion into connected_table.\n\n list_add double add: new=, prev=, next=.\n kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:35!\n Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI\n Workqueue: vsock-loopback vsock_loopback_work\n RIP: 0010:__list_add_valid_or_report+0x11f/0x130\n Call Trace:\n vsock_insert_connected.cold+0xe/0x13\n virtio_transport_recv_pkt+0x10e9/0x1460\n vsock_loopback_work+0x305/0x480\n process_one_work+0xe4c/0x1560\n worker_thread+0x4f1/0xd60\n kthread+0x36e/0x470\n ret_from_fork+0x47b/0x6b0\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n\nThis fix is supplementary to commit 002541ef650b (\"vsock: Ignore\nsignal/timeout on connect() if already established\").
