CVE-2023-53088
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix UaF in listener shutdown
As reported by Christoph after having refactored the passive socket initialization, the mptcp listener shutdown path is prone to an UaF issue.
The msk grace period can legitly expire in between the last reference count dropped in mptcp_subflow_queue_clean() and the later eventual access in inet_csk_listen_stop()
After the previous patch we don't need anymore special-casing msk listener socket cleanup: the mptcp worker will process each of the unaccepted msk sockets.
Just drop the now unnecessary code.

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution45 %
Vulnerabilidad local de use-after-free (CWE-416) en kernel Linux que requiere privilegios de usuario (PR:L). Sin embargo, el texto no describe impacto de ejecución de comandos explícito, sino corrupción de memoria que podría llevar a ejecución de código arbitrario en contexto de kernel.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
