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

Bluetooth: ISO: Check socket flag instead of hcon

This fixes the following Smatch static checker warning:

net/bluetooth/iso.c:1364 iso_sock_recvmsg()
error: we previously assumed 'pi->conn->hcon' could be null (line 1359)

net/bluetooth/iso.c
1347 static int iso_sock_recvmsg(struct socket *sock, struct msghdr *msg,
1348 size_t len, int flags)
1349 {
1350 struct sock *sk = sock->sk;
1351 struct iso_pinfo *pi = iso_pi(sk);
1352
1353 BT_DBG("sk %p", sk);

1355 if (test_and_clear_bit(BT_SK_DEFER_SETUP,
&bt_sk(sk)->flags)) {

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If ->hcon is NULL

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
then we're toast
