Subject: [PATCH BlueZ 1/2] gatt-client: fix use-after-free
Date: Thu,  8 Jan 2026 11:01:35 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108100136.486675-1-dalegaard@gmail.com> (raw)

Clients with an acquired characteristic subscription would free the
client during disconnect. When notify_io_destroy then tries to remove
the client, it'll use-after-free.

Add another reference when allocating the notify_io and unref it again
in notify_io_destroy.
