In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: Fix UAF in svctcplistendataready()
After the listener svcsock is freed, and before invoking svctcpaccept() for the established child sock, there is a window that the newsock retaining a freed listener svcsock in skuserdata which cloning from parent. In the race window, if data is received on the newsock, we will observe use-after-free report in svctcplistendataready().
Reproduce by two tasks:

Fix the UAF by simply doing nothing in svctcplistendataready() if state != TCP_LISTEN, that will avoid dereferencing svsk for all child socket.
