Summary
mctp: perform route lookups under a RCU read-side lock
Details

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

mctp: perform route lookups under a RCU read-side lock

Our current route lookups (mctproutelookup and mctproutelookup_null) traverse the net's route list without the RCU read lock held. This means the route lookup is subject to preemption, resulting in an potential grace period expiry, and so an eventual kfree() while we still have the route pointer.

Add the proper read-side critical section locks around the route lookups, preventing premption and a possible parallel kfree.

The remaining net->mctp.routes accesses are already under a rcureadlock, or protected by the RTNL for updates.

Based on an analysis from Sili Luo rootlab@huawei.com, where introducing a delay in the route lookup could cause a UAF on simultaneous sendmsg() and route deletion.
