Bug 2516412 (CVE-2026-72221)

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

sunrpc: wait for in-flight TLS handshake callback when cancel loses race

When wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() in
svc_tcp_handshake() returns 0 (timeout) or -ERESTARTSYS (signal) and
tls_handshake_cancel() then returns false, handshake_complete() has
won the cancellation race: it has set HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED and
is about to invoke svc_tcp_handshake_done(), but the callback's
side effects on xpt_flags and on svsk->sk_handshake_done have not
yet committed.

The current code reads xpt_flags immediately to decide whether the
session succeeded. Two races result.

If the callback has executed set_bit(XPT_TLS_SESSION) but not yet
clear_bit(XPT_HANDSHAKE), svc_tcp_handshake() sees a session,
enqueues the transport, and returns. svc_xprt_received() then
clears XPT_BUSY, a worker thread picks the transport up, the
dispatcher in svc_handle_xprt() observes XPT_HANDSHAKE still set,
and xpo_handshake is invoked a second time. That svc_tcp_handshake()
calls init_completion(&svsk->sk_handshake_done) while the original
callback concurrently calls complete_all() on it, corrupting the
embedded swait_queue.

If the callback has set HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED but not yet
entered svc_tcp_handshake_done(), svc_tcp_handshake() reads
XPT_TLS_SESSION as clear and tears the connection down even though
the handshake is about to succeed.

Wait for the callback to commit before inspecting xpt_flags. The
completion is guaranteed to fire because handshake_complete()
invokes svc_tcp_handshake_done() unconditionally once it has set
HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED.
