In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tls: stop recv() if initial process_rx_list gave us non-DATA
If we have a non-DATA record on the rx_list and another record of the
same type still on the queue, we will end up merging them:
- process_rx_list copies the non-DATA record
- we start the loop and process the first available record since it's
of the same type
- we break out of the loop since the record was not DATA
Just check the record type and jump to the end in case process_rx_list
did some work.
CISA SSVCTrack at low or medium mission impact; Track* or Attend at high (mission-essential systems).
A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.
Exploitation public PoC (EG-KEV: elevated) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact partial (CVSS below 9.0). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
