Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ovpn: fix peer refcount leak in TCP error paths<br />
<br />
When either the TCP RX or TX error path calls ovpn_peer_hold() followed<br />
by schedule_work(&peer->tcp.defer_del_work), and the work item is already<br />
pending from the other path, schedule_work() returns false and the work<br />
runs only once. Since ovpn_tcp_peer_del_work() calls ovpn_peer_put()<br />
exactly once, the extra reference taken by the losing path is never<br />
dropped, leaking the peer object.<br />
<br />
The race window:<br />
<br />
CPU0 (strparser/RX error): CPU1 (tcp_tx_work/TX error):<br />
ovpn_peer_hold()
