Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix use of wrong skb when comparing queued RESP challenge serial
In rxrpc_post_response(), the code should be comparing the challenge serial
number from the cached response before deciding to switch to a newer
response, but looks at the newer packet private data instead, rendering the
comparison always false.
Fix this by switching to look at the older packet.
Fix further[1] to substitute the new packet in place of the old one if
newer and also to release whichever we don't use.
