Technical Description

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

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix UAF in channel timeout by holding conn ref

l2cap_chan_timeout() runs asynchronously and accesses chan->conn. If

the connection is torn down while the timer is running or pending,

chan->conn can be freed, leading to a use-after-free when the timer

worker attempts to lock conn->lock:
