CVE-2026-23240

Estado: AnalizadaCrítica (9.8)—

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

tls: Fix race condition in tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()

This issue was discovered during a code audit.

After cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called from tls_sk_proto_close(), tx_work_handler() can still be scheduled from paths such as the Delayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd. As a result, the tx_work_handler() worker may dereference a freed TLS object.

The following is a simple race scenario:

To prevent this race condition, cancel_delayed_work_sync() is replaced with disable_delayed_work_sync().
