      <title>CVE-2023-54226 — af_unix: Fix data races around sk-&gt;sk_shutdown.</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-54226</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;af_unix: Fix data races around sk-&amp;gt;sk_shutdown.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;KCSAN found a data race around sk-&amp;gt;sk_shutdown where unix_release_sock()
and unix_shutdown() update it under unix_state_lock(), OTOH unix_poll()
and unix_dgram_poll() read it locklessly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We need to annotate the writes and reads with WRITE_ONCE() and READ_ONCE().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUG: KCSAN: data-race in unix_poll / unix_release_sock&lt;/p&gt;
