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

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: FIX possible deadlock in rfcomm_sk_state_change

rfcomm_sk_state_change attempts to use sock_lock so it must never be called with it locked but rfcomm_sock_ioctl always attempt to lock it causing the following trace:
