CVE-2026-74268 — tcp: clear sock_ops cb flags before force-closing a child socket

Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tcp: clear sock_ops cb flags before force-closing a child socket

A child socket inherits the listener's bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags via sk_clone_lock(). If its setup fails in tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() / tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock(), the child is freed through put_and_exit, where inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() drops the socket lock and tcp_done() runs without it.

If BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB_FLAG was inherited, tcp_done() -> tcp_set_state() calls tcp_call_bpf(), which expects the lock and trips sock_owned_by_me():

WARNING: include/net/sock.h:1799 at tcp_set_state+0x433/0x550 RIP: 0010:tcp_set_state+0x433/0x550 include/net/sock.h:1799 Call Trace: <IRQ> tcp_done+0xba/0x250 net/ipv4/tcp.c:5095 tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock+0x850/0xa50 net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:1787 tcp_check_req+0xf30/0x1360 net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c:926 tcp_v4_rcv+0x1047/0x1b50 net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:2164 </IRQ>

The child is freed before it is ever established, so it should run no sock_ops callback. Clear its cb flags in inet_csk_prepare_for_destroy_sock(), the common point for the IPv4, IPv6 and chtls forced-close paths and for the MPTCP ->syn_recv_sock() failure path (dispose_child), which reaches tcp_done() on a child that was never established too.

Affected: Ubuntu:24.04:LTS: linux-nvidia-tegra

It was discovered that some Arm processors could complete a broadcast translation lookaside buffer (TLB) invalidation before memory writes made through the invalidated translation were globally observed. A local attacker could possibly use this to write to memory after permission to do so had been revoked, bypassing memory protections or escalating privileges. (CVE-2025-10263)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM64 architecture; - User-space API (UAPI); - Kernel build system; - ARM32 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Cryptographic API; - Intel NPU Driver; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - ACPI drivers; - Drivers core; - DRBD Distributed Replicated Block Device drivers; - Rados block device (RBD) driver; - Ublk userspace block driver; - Compressed RAM block device driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - CXL (Compute Express Link) drivers; - Arm Firmware Framework for ARMv8-A(FFA); - EFI core; - FPGA Framework; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - I2C subsystem; - I3C subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - Input Device (Mouse) drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - Multiple devices driver; - Media…
