CVE-2024-35840 addresses a vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Multipath TCP (MPTCP) implementation, specifically within the subflow_finish_connect() function. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 5.5) could lead to a denial of service (A:H) due to the use of uninitialized fields if the OPTION_MPTCP_MPJ_SYNACK flag is not properly set. The attack vector is local (AV:L) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and requires low privileges (PR:L). There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
