Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: discard packets if the transport changes
If the socket has been de-assigned or assigned to another transport, we must discard any packets received because they are not expected and would cause issues when we access vsk->transport.
A possible scenario is described by Hyunwoo Kim in the attached link,
where after a first connect() interrupted by a signal, and a second
connect() failed, we can find vsk->transport
at NULL, leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.
