CVE-2023-54195
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix timeout of a call that hasn't yet been granted a channel
afs_make_call() calls rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() to begin a call (which may
get stalled in the background waiting for a connection to become
available); it then calls rxrpc_kernel_set_max_life() to set the timeouts -
but that starts the call timer so the call timer might then expire before
we get a connection assigned - leading to the following oops if the call
stalled:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

Fix this by noting the timeouts in struct rxrpc_call when the call is
created. The timer will be started when the first packet is transmitted.
It shouldn't be possible to trigger this directly from userspace through
AF_RXRPC as sendmsg() will return EBUSY if the call is in the
waiting-for-conn state if it dropped out of the wait due to a signal.
