CVE-2026-46137
mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: fix potential data-race
Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: fix potential data-race This mptcp_pm_add_timer() helper is executed as a timer callback in softirq context. To avoid any data races, the socket lock needs to be held with bh_lock_sock(). If the socket is in use, retry again soon after, similar to what is done with the keepalive timer.

Solution
Address data races in MPTCP by acquiring the socket lock during timer callbacks.
  • Acquire socket lock with bh_lock_sock() in mptcp_pm_add_timer().
  • Retry soon if the socket is in use.
  • Apply provided kernel patch.
  • Update to a patched Linux kernel version.
