Details

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

Bluetooth: Fix use after free in hci_send_acl

This fixes the following trace caused by receiving HCI_EV_DISCONN_PHY_LINK_COMPLETE which does call hci_conn_del without first checking if conn->type is in fact AMP_LINK and in case it is do properly cleanup upper layers with hci_disconn_cfm:
