Hi maintainers,
Upstream commit 01770a166165 ("tcp: fix race condition when creating child sockets from syncookies") is planned to be backported to 4.14, 4.19 and 5.4:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-stable-commits&m=165063781908608&w=3 https://marc.info/?l=linux-stable-commits&m=165063781708604&w=3 https://marc.info/?l=linux-stable-commits&m=165063781708603&w=3
Another commit c89dffc70b34 ("tcp: Fix potential use-after-free due to double kfree()") has a Fixes tag for it, so please backport this also.
Ick, that commit does not apply cleanly. The people who wanted 01770a166165 should also provide a working version of this fix as well.
Oh nevermind, I didn't have my queue up to date. It worked just fine, sorry for the noise.
Thanks for queuing up!
Next time I'll send a mail with a backportable-patch, not just commit id :)
commit id is fine for when I don't do stupid things :)
This is easier than having a backported patch as that way I don't have to confirm semi-manually that it matches what is in Linus's tree. So all is good, keep doing it this way for stuff that applies cleanly.
thanks again,
greg k-h
