In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mptcp: plug races between subflow fail and subflow creationWe have races similar to the one addressed by the previous patch betweensubflow failing and additional subflow creation. They are just harder totrigger.The solution is similar. Use a separate flag to track the condition'socket state prevent any additional subflow creation' protected by thefallback lock.The socket fallback makes such flag true, and also receiving or sendingan MP_FAIL option.The field 'allow_infinite_fallback' is now always touched under therelevant lock, we can drop the ONCE annotation on write.
