What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: use proper req destructor for IPv6

Before, only the destructor from TCP request sock in IPv4 was called

even if the subflow was IPv6.

It is important to use the right destructor to avoid memory leaks with

some advanced IPv6 features, e.g. when the request socks contain

specific IPv6 options.
