Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: close TOCTOU race while computing rcv_wnd

The MPTCP output path access locklessly the MPTCP-level ack_seq

in multiple times, using possibly different values for the data_ack

in the DSS option and to compute the announced rcv wnd for the same

packet.

Refactor the cote to avoid inconsistencies which may confuse the

peer. Also ensure that the MPTCP level rcv wnd is updated only when

the egress packet actually contains a DSS ack.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
