About this tag
The rxrpc tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about the Linux kernel's RxRPC (AF_RXRPC) protocol implementation, which is historically used by the Andrew File System (AFS). Content focuses on security vulnerabilities and patches affecting the rxrpc subsystem, including CVE-2026-23066, a locking bug in rxrpc_recvmsg that can cause use-after-free and refcount underruns, and CVE-2023-53218, a sendmsg issue that could lead to denial-of-service. Threads provide technical analysis of kernel patches, bug fixes, and their impact on system stability and security. Administrators and developers working with the rxrpc stack or kernel sockets will find relevant patch details and mitigation guidance.

    CVE-2026-23066: RxRPC recvmsg Locking Bug and Kernel Patch

    A subtle locking bug in the kernel's RxRPC recvpath can corrupt internal socket queues and lead to use-after-free and refcount underruns — a flaw tracked as CVE-2026-23066 that was introduced by incorrect requeue logic in rxrpc_recvmsg() and fixed upstream by a targeted patch in early 2026...

    Linux Kernel rxrpc CVE-2023-53218 Fix: Abortable Sendmsg for Availability

    A narrowly targeted but important Linux kernel fix addressing CVE-2023-53218 changes how the rxrpc subsystem handles a queued call so a waiting process can be aborted instead of leaving subsequent calls blocked with EBUSY — a behavior that could cause sustained denial-of-service for local users...
