Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: afunix: fix struct pid leaks in OOB support syzbot reported struct pid leak [1]. Issue is that queueoob() calls maybeaddcreds() which potentially holds a reference on a pid. But skb->destructor is not set (either directly or by calling unixscmtoskb()) This means that subsequent kfreeskb() or consumeskb() would leak this reference. In this fix, I chose to fully support scm even for the OOB message.
