CVE-2026-43029

EUVD-2026-26628
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: fix soft lockup in mptcp_recvmsg()

syzbot reported a soft lockup in mptcp_recvmsg() [0].

When receiving data with MSG_PEEK | MSG_WAITALL flags, the skb is not
removed from the sk_receive_queue. This causes sk_wait_data() to always
find available data and never perform actual waiting, leading to a soft
lockup.

Fix this by adding a 'last' parameter to track the last peeked skb.
This allows sk_wait_data() to make informed waiting decisions and prevent
infinite loops when MSG_PEEK is used.
