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

    tipc: fix a null-ptr-deref in tipc_topsrv_accept

    syzbot found a crash in tipc_topsrv_accept:

      KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
      Workqueue: tipc_rcv tipc_topsrv_accept
      RIP: 0010:kernel_accept+0x22d/0x350 net/socket.c:3487
      Call Trace:
       <TASK>
       tipc_topsrv_accept+0x197/0x280 net/tipc/topsrv.c:460

    It was caused by srv->listener that might be set to null by
    tipc_topsrv_stop() in net .exit whereas it's still used in
    tipc_topsrv_accept() worker.

    srv->listener is protected by srv->idr_lock in tipc_topsrv_stop(), so add
    a check for srv->listener under srv->idr_lock in tipc_topsrv_accept() to
    avoid the null-ptr-deref. To ensure the lsock is not released during the
    tipc_topsrv_accept(), move sock_release() after tipc_topsrv_work_stop()
    where it's waiting until the tipc_topsrv_accept worker to be done.

    Note that sk_callback_lock is used to protect sk->sk_user_data instead of
    srv->listener, and it should check srv in tipc_topsrv_listener_data_ready()
    instead. This also ensures that no more tipc_topsrv_accept worker will be
    started after tipc_conn_close() is called in tipc_topsrv_stop() where it
    sets sk->sk_user_data to null.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
