Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: fix iso_conn related locking and validity issues
sk->sk_state indicates whether iso_pi(sk)->conn is valid. Operations
that check/update sk_state and access conn should hold lock_sock,
otherwise they can race.
The order of taking locks is hci_dev_lock > lock_sock > iso_conn_lock,
which is how it is in connect/disconnect_cfm -> iso_conn_del ->
iso_chan_del.
Fix locking in iso_connect_cis/bis and sendmsg/recvmsg to take lock_sock
around updating sk_state and conn.
iso_conn_del must not occur during iso_connect_cis/bis, as it frees the
iso_conn. Hold hdev->lock longer to prevent that.
This should not reintroduce the issue fixed in commit 241f51931c35
("Bluetooth: ISO: Avoid circular locking dependency"), since the we
acquire locks in order. We retain the fix in iso_sock_connect to release
lock_sock before iso_connect_* acquires hdev->lock.
Similarly for commit 6a5ad251b7cd ("Bluetooth: ISO: Fix possi
