Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix double-free on socket dismantle
when MPTCP server accepts an incoming connection, it clones its listener socket. However, the pointer to ‘inet_opt’ for the new socket has the same value as the original one: as a consequence, on program exit it’s possible to observe the following splat:
