Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: tcp_rtx_synack() can be called from process context Laurent reported the enclosed report [1] This bug triggers with following coditions: 0) Kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y 1) A new passive FastOpen TCP socket is created. This FO socket waits for an ACK coming from client to be a complete ESTABLISHED one. 2) A socket operation on this socket goes through lock_sock() release_sock() dance. 3) While the socket is owned by the user in step 2), a retransmit of the SYN is received and stored in socket backlog. 4) At release_sock() time, the socket backlog is processed while in process context. 5) A SYNACK packet is cooked in response of the SYN retransmit. 6) -> tcp_rtx_synack() is called in process context. Before blamed commit, tcp_rtx_synack() was always called from BH handler, from a timer handler. Fix this by using TCP_INC_STATS() & NET_INC_STATS() which do not assume caller is in non preemptible context.
