[Impact]
There are use-after-free vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel net/bluetooth/
l2cap_core.c l2cap_connect and l2cap_le_connect_req functions which may allow
code execution and leaking kernel memory (respectively) remotely via Bluetooth.
A remote attacker could execute code leaking kernel memory via Bluetooth if
within proximity of the victim.

[Fix]
Two patches are necessary to fix this, but one is already applied to
linux-oem-6.0. Other kernels already got the two fixes, when appropriate.

[Potential regression]
Bluetooth connections might fail.
