Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/iucv: fix locking in .getsockopt
Mirror iucv_sock_setsockopt() and wrap the whole switch in
lock_sock()/release_sock(). The pre-existing SO_MSGLIMIT-only lock
becomes redundant and is removed.
Any AF_IUCV HIPER user can potentially crash the kernel by racing
recvmsg() with getsockopt(SO_MSGSIZE): the SO_MSGSIZE arm dereferences
iucv->hs_dev->mtu after iucv_sock_close() (called from the racing
recvmsg()) has set hs_dev to NULL, producing a NULL pointer dereference
oops.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AF_IUCV (Inter-User Communication Vehicle) networking module. A local user can exploit a race condition between message reception and socket option retrieval, specifically when calling getsockopt(SO_MSGSIZE). This can lead to a null pointer dereference, causing the kernel to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
