CVE-2025-21972
net: mctp: unshare packets when reassembling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mctp: unshare packets when reassembling
Ensure that the frag_list used for reassembly isn't shared with other
packets. This avoids incorrect reassembly when packets are cloned, and
prevents a memory leak due to circular references between fragments and
their skb_shared_info.
The upcoming MCTP-over-USB driver uses skb_clone which can trigger the
problem - other MCTP drivers don't share SKBs.
A kunit test is added to reproduce the issue.
