Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> rxrpc: only handle RESPONSE during service challenge<br /> <br /> Only process RESPONSE packets while the service connection is still in<br /> RXRPC_CONN_SERVICE_CHALLENGING. Check that state under state_lock before<br /> running response verification and security initialization, then use a local<br /> secured flag to decide whether to queue the secured-connection work after<br /> the state transition. This keeps duplicate or late RESPONSE packets from<br /> re-running the setup path and removes the unlocked post-transition state<br /> test.
