CVE-2024-26585
CVSS 3.1 Score 4.7 of 10 (medium)
Details
Summary
CVE-2024-26585 is a vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel that has been addressed. It involves a race condition between the scheduling of transmission work and the closing of a socket. Previously, the async crypto handler could call the 'complete()' function before the submitting thread had finished scheduling the work, leading to unintended consequences. To mitigate this issue, the order of operations has been reversed, with the work being scheduled before the 'complete()' function is called. This approach better aligns with the expected order of events from the perspective of the submitting thread.
