CVE-2025-39860

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

Bluetooth: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen()

syzbot reported the splat below without a repro.

In the splat, a single thread calling bt_accept_dequeue() freed sk
and touched it after that.

The root cause would be the racy l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen() call
added by the cited commit.

bt_accept_dequeue() is called under lock_sock() except for
l2cap_sock_release().

Two threads could see the same socket during the list iteration
in bt_accept_dequeue():

CPU1 CPU2 (close())
—- —-
sock_hold(sk) sock_hold(sk);
lock_sock(sk) <– block close()
sock_put(sk)
bt_accept_unlink(sk)
sock_put(sk) <– refcnt by bt_accept_enqueue()
release_sock(sk)
lock_sock(sk)
sock_put(sk)
bt_accept_unlink(sk)
sock_put(sk) <– last refcnt
bt_accept_unlink(sk) <– UAF

Depending on the timing, the other thread could show up in the
"Freed by task" part.

Let's call l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen() under lock_sock() in
l2cap_sock_release().
