Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net/handshake: restore destructor on submit failure<br />
<br />
handshake_req_submit() replaces sk->sk_destruct but never restores it when<br />
submission fails before the request is hashed. handshake_sk_destruct() then<br />
returns early and the original destructor never runs, leaking the socket.<br />
Restore sk_destruct on the error path.
