Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix chan ref leak in l2cap_chan_timeout() on !conn<br />
<br />
__set_chan_timer() takes a l2cap_chan reference via l2cap_chan_hold()<br />
before scheduling the delayed work. The normal path in<br />
l2cap_chan_timeout() drops this reference with l2cap_chan_put() at the<br />
end, but the early return when chan->conn is NULL skips the put,<br />
leaking the reference.<br />
<br />
Add the missing l2cap_chan_put() before the early return.
