mptcp: ensure context reset on disconnect()
Summary
mptcp: ensure context reset on disconnect()
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: ensure context reset on disconnect()
After the blamed commit below, if the MPC subflow is already in TCP_CLOSE
status or has fallback to TCP at mptcp_disconnect() time,
mptcp_do_fastclose() skips setting the send_fastclose flag and the later
__mptcp_close_ssk() does not reset anymore the related subflow context.
Any later connection will be created with both the request_mptcp flag
and the msk-level fallback status off (it is unconditionally cleared at
MPTCP disconnect time), leading to a warning in subflow_data_ready():
