From 1b34cbbf4f011a121ef7b2d7d6e6920a036d5285 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu herbert@gondor.apana.org.au Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2025 17:20:59 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore, concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal socket state.
Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates exclusive ownership for writing.
