Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg<br />
<br />
Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the<br />
data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore,<br />
concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal<br />
socket state.<br />
<br />
Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates<br />
exclusive ownership for writing.
