Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: use OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK in subflow_finish_connect() subflow_finish_connect() uses four fields (backup, join_id, thmac, none)
that may contain garbage unless OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK has been set
in mptcp_parse_option()

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: mptcp: use OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK en subflow_finish_connect() subflow_finish_connect() usa cuatro campos (backup, join_id, thmac, none) que pueden contener basura a menos que se haya configurado OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK en mptcp_parse_option()

CVE-2024-35840 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s Multipath TCP (MPTCP) implementation. It occurs because the subflow_finish_connect() function may handle uninitialized data in certain fields if a specific MPTCP option (OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK) is not correctly set during option parsing. This could lead to unpredictable behavior in MPTCP connections. The issue has been resolved by ensuring proper initialization and handling of these fields.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: use OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK in subflow_finish_connect() subflow_finish_connect() uses four fields (backup, join_id, thmac, none) that may contain garbage unless OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK has been set in mptcp_parse_option()

Alon Zahavi discovered that the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly validate H2C PDU data, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the Intel Data Streaming and Intel Analytics Accelerator drivers in the Linux kernel allowed direct access to the devices for unprivileged users and virtual machines. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
