CVE-2021-47594

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

mptcp: never allow the PM to close a listener subflow

Currently, when deleting an endpoint the netlink PM treverses all the local MPTCP sockets, regardless of their status.

If an MPTCP listener socket is bound to the IP matching the delete endpoint, the listener TCP socket will be closed. That is unexpected, the PM should only affect data subflows.

Additionally, syzbot was able to trigger a NULL ptr dereference due to the above:
