Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net/tls: fix kernel panic when alloc_page failed<br /> <br /> We cannot set frag_list to NULL pointer when alloc_page failed.<br /> It will be used in tls_strp_check_queue_ok when the next time<br /> tls_strp_read_sock is called.<br /> <br /> This is because we don&amp;#39;t reset full_len in tls_strp_flush_anchor_copy()<br /> so the recv path will try to continue handling the partial record<br /> on the next call but we dettached the rcvq from the frag list.<br /> Alternative fix would be to reset full_len.<br /> <br /> Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference<br /> at virtual address 0000000000000028<br /> Call trace:<br /> tls_strp_check_rcv+0x128/0x27c<br /> tls_strp_data_ready+0x34/0x44<br /> tls_data_ready+0x3c/0x1f0<br /> tcp_data_ready+0x9c/0xe4<br /> tcp_data_queue+0xf6c/0x12d0<br /> tcp_rcv_established+0x52c/0x798
