      <title>CVE-2026-45889 — mptcp: do not account for OoO in mptcp_rcvbuf_grow()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-45889</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;mptcp: do not account for OoO in mptcp_rcvbuf_grow()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;MPTCP-level OoOs are physiological when multiple subflows are active
concurrently and will not cause retransmissions nor are caused by
drops.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Accounting for them in mptcp_rcvbuf_grow() causes the rcvbuf slowly
drifting towards tcp_rmem[2].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remove such accounting. Note that subflows will still account for TCP-level
OoO when the MPTCP-level rcvbuf is propagated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This also closes a subtle and very unlikely race condition with rcvspace
init; active sockets with user-space holding the msk-level socket lock,
could complete such initialization in the receive callback, after that the
first OoO data reaches the rcvbuf and potentially triggering a divide by
zero Oops.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
