Ubuntu: (Multiple Advisories) (CVE-2024-53139): Linux kernel vulnerabilities

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

sctp: fix possible UAF in sctp_v6_available()

A lockdep report [1] with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y hints
that sctp_v6_available() is calling dev_get_by_index_rcu()
and ipv6_chk_addr() without holding rcu.

[1]
=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
6.12.0-rc5-virtme #1216 Tainted: G W
-----------------------------
net/core/dev.c:876 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
