Bryam Vargas 900cd6d811 net/iucv: fix use-after-free of a severed iucv_path
commit be7cc4656e upstream.

af_iucv queues not-yet-received message notifications on iucv->message_q,
each holding a raw pointer to the connection's iucv_path.  When the peer
severs the connection, iucv_sever_path() frees that path with
iucv_path_free() but leaves the notifications queued.  A later recvmsg()
drains message_q via iucv_process_message_q() and hands the stale path to
message_receive() -- a use-after-free of the freed iucv_path.

Drop the queued notifications when the path is severed; once the path is
gone they can no longer be received.  This also frees the notifications
leaked when a socket is closed with messages still queued.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
