rfcomm_sk_state_change() takes the listener from bt_sk(sk)->parent,
unlinks a closing child from the accept queue and then notifies the
listener through that pointer. bt_accept_enqueue() retains only the
child, so once bt_accept_unlink() returns a concurrent close() can free
the listener:
krfcommd close(listener)
rfcomm_sk_state_change()
parent = bt_sk(sk)->parent
bt_accept_unlink(sk)
cleanup_listen(): queue empty
rfcomm_sock_kill() -> kfree
parent->sk_data_ready(parent) <- use-after-free
KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rfcomm_sk_state_change (read of 8 bytes at
offset 264), freed by rfcomm_sock_release() -> __sk_destruct(); the window
between the unlink and the notification was widened for the test.
Same class as commit 4020751fd0df ("Bluetooth: L2CAP: Hold the listener
while notifying child teardown") and commit b4a00dedc5cc ("Bluetooth: ISO:
Hold the listener during disconnect notification"); take a reference
before the unlink and drop it after the notification. Lock order is
unchanged, the child lock keeps cleanup_listen() out until then.
