Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-04-25 09:01:26 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

rxrpc: only handle RESPONSE during service challenge

Only process RESPONSE packets while the service connection is still in
RXRPC_CONN_SERVICE_CHALLENGING. Check that state under state_lock before
running response verification and security initialization, then use a local
secured flag to decide whether to queue the secured-connection work after
the state transition. This keeps duplicate or late RESPONSE packets from
re-running the setup path and removes the unlocked post-transition state
test.
