There is no fixed version for Centos:7 kernel-rt-trace-devel.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-trace-devel package and not the kernel-rt-trace-devel package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix sk_forward_memory corruption on retransmission
MPTCP sk_forward_memory handling is a bit special, as such field is protected by the msk socket spin_lock, instead of the plain socket lock.
Currently we have a code path updating such field without handling the relevant lock:
__mptcp_retrans() -> __mptcp_clean_una_wakeup()
Several helpers in __mptcp_clean_una_wakeup() will update sk_forward_alloc, possibly causing such field corruption, as reported by Matthieu.
Address the issue providing and using a new variant of blamed function which explicitly acquires the msk spin lock.
