In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: fix TFO max_qlen accounting across reuseport migration
A listener's TCP_FASTOPEN max_qlen stops being accurate and lets through
far more pending Fast Open requests than it was configured for.
This only shows up with SO_REUSEPORT listener migration, where closing a
listener hands its still-pending TFO children over to a surviving one.
fastopenq.qlen is charged in tcp_fastopen_create_child() when the child
is created and uncharged in reqsk_fastopen_remove() when the handshake
completes. The uncharge follows rsk_listener of the request the child
points at, and inet_reqsk_clone() has repointed the child at a new
request owned by the new listener, so the ++ and the -- land on two
different sockets. The new listener's qlen drifts negative and its
limit no longer binds.
Charge the new listener during migration, like reqsk_queue_migrated()
already does for queue->young and queue->qlen.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TCP Fast Open (TFO) implementation. During SO_REUSEPORT listener migration, the system incorrectly accounts for pending TCP Fast Open requests. This can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by allowing an excessive number of Fast Open requests, potentially exhausting system resources.
