This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sctp: ensure sk_state is set to CLOSED if hashing fails in sctp_listen_start to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sctp-ensure-sk_state-is-set-to-closed-if-hashing-fai.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 4034054f679112cf3f9803ab9604e089a9ff625d Author: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Oct 7 12:25:11 2024 -0400 sctp: ensure sk_state is set to CLOSED if hashing fails in sctp_listen_start [ Upstream commit 4d5c70e6155d5eae198bade4afeab3c1b15073b6 ] If hashing fails in sctp_listen_start(), the socket remains in the LISTENING state, even though it was not added to the hash table. This can lead to a scenario where a socket appears to be listening without actually being accessible. This patch ensures that if the hashing operation fails, the sk_state is set back to CLOSED before returning an error. Note that there is no need to undo the autobind operation if hashing fails, as the bind port can still be used for next listen() call on the same socket.
