| Doc Text: |
[REJECTED CVE] A vulnerability was identified in the net/tls module of the Linux kernel where the tls_sk_proto_close() function could be executed repeatedly during socket teardown due to improper protocol pointer handling in tls_update(). This recursive invocation could lead to a NULL pointer dereference and kernel panic. An attacker exploiting this flaw could potentially trigger a denial of service by forcing repeated close operations on a crafted TLS socket.
