In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: do not account for OoO in mptcp_rcvbuf_grow()
MPTCP-level OoOs are physiological when multiple subflows are active
concurrently and will not cause retransmissions nor are caused by
drops.
Accounting for them in mptcp_rcvbuf_grow() causes the rcvbuf slowly
drifting towards tcp_rmem[2].
Remove such accounting. Note that subflows will still account for TCP-level
OoO when the MPTCP-level rcvbuf is propagated.
This also closes a subtle and very unlikely race condition with rcvspace
init; active sockets with user-space holding the msk-level socket lock,
could complete such initialization in the receive callback, after that the
first OoO data reaches the rcvbuf and potentially triggering a divide by
zero Oops.
