CVE-2026-89774NVD

Vulnerability Summary

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.
