Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/l2tp: fix warning in l2tp_exit_net found by syzbot In l2tp's net exit handler, we check that an IDR is empty before destroying it: WARN_ON_ONCE(!idr_is_empty(&pn->l2tp_tunnel_idr)); idr_destroy(&pn->l2tp_tunnel_idr); By forcing memory allocation failures in idr_alloc_32, syzbot is able to provoke a condition where idr_is_empty returns false despite there being no items in the IDR. This turns out to be because the radix tree of the IDR contains only internal radix-tree nodes and it is this that causes idr_is_empty to return false. The internal nodes are cleaned by idr_destroy. Use idr_for_each to check that the IDR is empty instead of idr_is_empty to avoid the problem.

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/l2tp: correcci\u00f3n de advertencia en l2tp_exit_net encontrada por syzbot En el controlador de salida de red de l2tp, verificamos que un IDR est\u00e9 vac\u00edo antes de destruirlo: WARN_ON_ONCE(!idr_is_empty(\u0026amp;pn-\u0026gt;l2tp_tunnel_idr)); idr_destroy(\u0026amp;pn-\u0026gt;l2tp_tunnel_idr); Al forzar fallas de asignaci\u00f3n de memoria en idr_alloc_32, syzbot puede provocar una condici\u00f3n donde idr_is_empty devuelve falso a pesar de que no haya elementos en el IDR. Esto resulta ser porque el \u00e1rbol de radix del IDR contiene solo nodos de \u00e1rbol de radix internos y es esto lo que hace que idr_is_empty devuelva falso. Los nodos internos son limpiados por idr_destroy. Utilice idr_for_each para verificar que el IDR est\u00e9 vac\u00edo en lugar de idr_is_empty para evitar el problema."
