As Or Cohen described: If sctp_destroy_sock is called without sock_net(sk)->sctp.addr_wq_lock held and sp->do_auto_asconf is true, then an element is removed from the auto_asconf_splist without any proper locking. This can happen in the following functions: 1. In sctp_accept, if sctp_sock_migrate fails. 2. In inet_create or inet6_create, if there is a bpf program attached to BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE which denies creation of the sctp socket. This patch is to fix it by moving the auto_asconf init out of sctp_init_sock(), by which inet_create()/inet6_create() won't need to operate it in sctp_destroy_sock() when calling sk_common_release(). It also makes more sense to do auto_asconf init while binding the first addr, as auto_asconf actually requires an ANY addr bind, see it in sctp_addr_wq_timeout_handler(). This addresses CVE-2021-23133.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
