{"id":"AZL-99666","summary":"CVE-2026-80784 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmptcp: pm: fix memory leak from alloc-during-teardown race\n\nmptcp_pm_destroy() empties msk-\u003epm.anno_list and\nmsk-\u003epm.userspace_pm_local_addr_list under msk-\u003epm.lock during socket\nteardown, dropping the lock between the two.\n\nA concurrent userspace PM genl ANNOUNCE on the same msk holds a sock\nreference via mptcp_token_get_sock() and, in\nmptcp_pm_nl_announce_doit(), calls\nmptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr() and\nmptcp_pm_announced_alloc(). Both take msk-\u003epm.lock briefly to add to\ntheir respective lists. Because the genl handler holds a sock reference,\nmptcp_pm_destroy() may run on the same msk via mptcp_disconnect(), which\ninvokes mptcp_destroy_common() without dropping the sock refcount,\nbefore the handler completes.\n\nIf the lock acquisitions interleave such that mptcp_pm_destroy() empties\na list first, the later alloc adds its entry to a list head that nothing\nelse iterates for this msk, and the entry leaks. kmemleak reports both\nmptcp_pm_add_addr objects (from mptcp_pm_announced_alloc()) and\nmptcp_pm_addr_entry objects (from\nmptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr()) under sustained concurrent\nANNOUNCE + close load against the userspace PM.\n\nAdd an MPTCP_PM_DESTROYING bit in msk-\u003epm.status, set by\nmptcp_pm_destroy() under pm.lock before the lists are emptied and\nchecked under pm.lock by the alloc paths. Either the alloc takes pm.lock\nfirst, in which case its entry is on the list when mptcp_pm_destroy()\nfrees it; or mptcp_pm_destroy() takes pm.lock first, in which case the\nlater alloc observes the bit and refuses.\n\nFound by an MPTCP protocol-flow harness extending BRF (arXiv:2305.08782).","modified":"2026-09-05T14:15:11.733805161Z","published":"2026-09-04T16:18:04Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-80784"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80784"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-99666.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
