| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: Transitional solution for clcsock race issue
We encountered a crash in smc_setsockopt() and it is caused by
accessing smc->clcsock after clcsock was released.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

This patch tries to fix it by holding clcsock_release_lock and
checking whether clcsock has already been released before access.
In case that a crash of the same reason happens in smc_getsockopt()
or smc_switch_to_fallback(), this patch also checkes smc->clcsock
in them too. And the caller of smc_switch_to_fallback() will identify
whether fallback succeeds according to the return value. |
