Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: tls: explicitly disallow disconnect

syzbot discovered that it can disconnect a TLS socket and then run into all sort of unexpected corner cases. I have a vague recollection of Eric pointing this out to us a long time ago. Supporting disconnect is really hard, for one thing if offload is enabled we'd need to wait for all packets to be _acked_. Disconnect is not commonly used, disallow it.

The immediate problem syzbot run into is the warning in the strp, but that's just the easiest bug to trigger:
