Subject: CVE-2024-40954: net: do not leave a dangling sk pointer, when socket creation fails

Description
===========

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

net: do not leave a dangling sk pointer, when socket creation fails

It is possible to trigger a use-after-free by:
  * attaching an fentry probe to __sock_release() and the probe calling the
    bpf_get_socket_cookie() helper
  * running traceroute -I 1.1.1.1 on a freshly booted VM

A KASAN enabled kernel will log something like below (decoded and stripped):

Fix this by clearing the struct socket reference in sk_common_release() to cover
all protocol families create functions, which may already attached the
reference to the sk object with sock_init_data().

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
