UTSA-2026-013373 advisory.

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

    gtp: Fix use-after-free in __gtp_encap_destroy().

    syzkaller reported use-after-free in __gtp_encap_destroy(). [0]

    It shows the same process freed sk and touched it illegally.

    Commit e198987e7dd7 (gtp: fix suspicious RCU usage) added lock_sock()
    and release_sock() in __gtp_encap_destroy() to protect sk->sk_user_data,
    but release_sock() is called after sock_put() releases the last refcnt.
