Description

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.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 3.4 < 5.10.259) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.210) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.176) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.143) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.93) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.35) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 7.0.12) • linux linux kernel 7.1
