Vulnerability from github
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: only mark 'subflow' endp as available
Adding the following warning ...
WARN_ON_ONCE(msk->pm.local_addr_used == 0)
... before decrementing the local_addr_used counter helped to find a bug when running the "remove single address" subtest from the mptcp_join.sh selftests.
Removing a 'signal' endpoint will trigger the removal of all subflows linked to this endpoint via mptcp_pm_nl_rm_addr_or_subflow() with rm_type == MPTCP_MIB_RMSUBFLOW. This will decrement the local_addr_used counter, which is wrong in this case because this counter is linked to 'subflow' endpoints, and here it is a 'signal' endpoint that is being removed.
Now, the counter is decremented, only if the ID is being used outside of mptcp_pm_nl_rm_addr_or_subflow(), only for 'subflow' endpoints, and if the ID is not 0 -- local_addr_used is not taking into account these ones. This marking of the ID as being available, and the decrement is done no matter if a subflow using this ID is currently available, because the subflow could have been closed before.
