CVE-2026-89774: Bluetooth: SCO: hold sk properly in sco_conn_ready

CVE-2026-89774: Bluetooth: SCO: hold sk properly in sco_conn_ready

[Lee Jones]

Description
===========

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

Bluetooth: SCO: hold sk properly in sco_conn_ready

sk deref in sco_conn_ready must be done either under conn->lock, or
holding a refcount, to avoid concurrent close. conn->sk and parent sk is
currently accessed without either, and without checking parent->sk_state:

    [Task 1]            [Task 2]
                        sco_sock_release
    sco_conn_ready
      sk = conn->sk
                          lock_sock(sk)
                            conn->sk = NULL
      lock_sock(sk)
                          release_sock(sk)
                          sco_sock_kill(sk)
       UAF on sk deref

and similarly for access to sco_get_sock_listen() return value.

Fix possible UAF by holding sk refcount in sco_conn_ready() and making
sco_get_sock_listen() increase refcount. Also recheck after lock_sock
that the socket is still valid.  Adjust conn->sk locking so it's
protected also by lock_sock() of the associated socket if any.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-89774 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
