Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mptcp: Fix proto fallback detection with BPF<br />
<br />
The sockmap feature allows bpf syscall from userspace, or based<br />
on bpf sockops, replacing the sk_prot of sockets during protocol stack<br />
processing with sockmap&#39;s custom read/write interfaces.<br />
&#39;&#39;&#39;<br />
tcp_rcv_state_process()<br />
syn_recv_sock()/subflow_syn_recv_sock()<br />
tcp_init_transfer(BPF_SOCK_OPS_PASSIVE_ESTABLISHED_CB)<br />
bpf_skops_established ops.<br />
<br />
This fix uses the more generic sk_family for the comparison instead.<br />
<br />
Additionally, this also prevents a WARNING from occurring:<br />
<br />
result from ./scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh:<br />
