In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wireguard: noise: reject response consumption after intermediate initiation
Two threads begin processing the identical response message, received
twice. The first thread, A, runs. While it's running, the second one,
B, gets partway through, and during that slow calculation, or even while
blocking on down_write(), A completes and then also a handshake
initiation that's already been queued up runs in thread C, which itself
takes that same down_write(). The handshake initiation creation
succeeds, and sets the state back to waiting-for-response, and calls
up_write(), at which point thread B resumes, because either its finished
its calculations or was finally allowed to acquire down_write(). Thread
B then copies the state back to the peer, and begins a new session,
using that state, which is the same session as the one made in thread A.

This seems basically impossible to hit in a meaningful way in practice,
but ensure that it absolutely cannot happen by comparing the ephemeral
private key that's on the stack with the latest one that the peer's
handshake state has.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's WireGuard implementation. A race condition during the processing of duplicate handshake response messages can allow a remote network peer to cause an inconsistent session state. When duplicate responses are handled concurrently with a new handshake initiation, the handshake state can be improperly reused, leading to session desynchronization or connection failure.
