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

tipc: fix divide-by-zero in tipc_sk_filter_connect()

A user can set conn_timeout to any value via setsockopt(TIPC_CONN_TIMEOUT), including values less than 4. When a SYN is rejected with TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD and the retry path in tipc_sk_filter_connect() executes:

delay %= (tsk->conn_timeout / 4);

If conn_timeout is in the range [0, 3], the integer division yields 0, and the modulo operation triggers a divide-by-zero exception, causing a kernel oops/panic.

Fix this by clamping conn_timeout to a minimum of 4 at the point of use in tipc_sk_filter_connect().
