Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: SCO: Fix use-after-free in sco_recv_frame() due to missing sock_hold
Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2026 05:26:16 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <abMhaMILH0Db12LU@v4bel> (raw)

sco_recv_frame() reads conn->sk under sco_conn_lock() but immediately
releases the lock without holding a reference to the socket. A concurrent
close() can free the socket between the lock release and the subsequent
sk->sk_state access, resulting in a use-after-free.

Other functions in the same file (sco_sock_timeout(), sco_conn_del())
correctly use sco_sock_hold() to safely hold a reference under the lock.

Fix by using sco_sock_hold() to take a reference before releasing the
lock, and adding sock_put() on all exit paths.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
