CVE-2026-74302

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_core: Fix UAF in hci_unregister_dev()
hci_unregister_dev() does not disable cmd_timer and ncmd_timer
before the hci_dev structure is freed. If a timeout fires
during device teardown, the callback dereferences freed memory
(including the hdev->reset function pointer), leading to a
use-after-free.
Add disable_delayed_work_sync() calls alongside the existing
disable_work_sync() calls to ensure both timers are fully
quiesced before teardown proceeds.
