[PATCH net] net/tcp: Don't consider TCP_CLOSE in TCP_AO_ESTABLISHED

From: Dmitry Safonov via B4 Relay
Date: Wed May 29 2024 - 13:30:02 EST


From: Dmitry Safonov <0x7f454c46@xxxxxxxxx>

TCP_CLOSE may or may not have current/rnext keys and should not be
considered "established". The fast-path for TCP_CLOSE is
SKB_DROP_REASON_TCP_CLOSE. This is what tcp_rcv_state_process() does
anyways. Add an early drop path to not spend any time verifying
segment signatures for sockets in TCP_CLOSE state.

Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v6.7
Fixes: 0a3a809089eb ("net/tcp: Verify inbound TCP-AO signed segments")
