      "title": "ovpn: skip rehash for peers already removed from by_id",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\novpn: skip rehash for peers already removed from by_id\n\novpn_nl_peer_set_doit() resolves the target peer via\novpn_peer_get_by_id() before taking ovpn->lock. In the window between\nthe lookup (which only takes a refcount) and the subsequent\nspin_lock_bh(&ovpn->lock), a concurrent OVPN_CMD_PEER_DEL, keepalive\nexpiry, or socket teardown can take ovpn->lock first, run\novpn_peer_remove() to unhash the peer from all four tables (by_id,\nby_vpn_addr4/6, by_transp_addr) and release the lock. set_doit then\nacquires ovpn->lock and calls ovpn_peer_hash_vpn_ip(), which\nre-inserts the now-removed peer back into the rehashing tables.\n\nThe same race affects the float path: ovpn_peer_endpoints_update()\nholds only a refcount and acquires ovpn->lock very late (after async\nAEAD decrypt and a netlink notification), then rehashes the peer\nin the by_transp_addr table.\n\nThe resurrected peer becomes reachable again from the RX lookup\n(ovpn_peer_get_by_transp_addr) and the TX VPN-IP lookup, even though\nuserspace believes it is gone. Once the data-path refcount drops the\npeer is freed via call_rcu while the hash entries embedded in it\nremain linked, opening a UAF window.\n\nBail out of the rehash when hash_entry_id is unhashed, mirroring\nthe sentinel already used by ovpn_peer_remove() to detect the\nalready-removed state. The check is safe under ovpn->lock, which\nserializes every mutation of hash_entry_id, and is a no-op for the\nadd path because ovpn_peer_add_mp() inserts hash_entry_id before\ncalling ovpn_peer_hash_vpn_ip().",
