Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tls: explicitly disallow disconnect
syzbot discovered that it can disconnect a TLS socket and then
run into all sort of unexpected corner cases. I have a vague
recollection of Eric pointing this out to us a long time ago.
Supporting disconnect is really hard, for one thing if offload
is enabled we'd need to wait for all packets to be _acked_.
Disconnect is not commonly used, disallow it.
The immediate problem syzbot run into is the warning in the strp,
but that's just the easiest bug to trigger:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5834 at net/tls/tls_strp.c:486 tls_strp_msg_load+0x72e/0xa80 net/tls/tls_strp.c:486
