CVE: CVE-2021-47448
Published: 2024-05-22
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: fix possible stall on recvmsg()

recvmsg() can enter an infinite loop if the caller provides the
MSG_WAITALL, the data present in the receive queue is not sufficient to
fulfill the request, and no more data is received by the peer.

When the above happens, mptcp_wait_data() will always return with
no wait, as the MPTCP_DATA_READY flag checked by such function is
set and never cleared in such code path.

Leveraging the above syzbot was able to trigger an RCU stall:

rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
rcu:    0-...!: (10499 ticks this GP) idle=0af/1/0x[PII_REDACTED]000000 softirq=10678/10678 fqs=1

rcu: rcu_preempt kthread starved for 10497 jiffies! g13089 f0x0 RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS(5) ->state=0x0 ->cpu=1
rcu:    Unless rcu_preempt kthread gets sufficient CPU time, OOM is now expected behavior.
