Title
bpf: Fix out-of-bounds read of sk_protocol in bpf_sock_destroy()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix out-of-bounds read of sk_protocol in bpf_sock_destroy()
sk_protocol lives in struct sock, not in struct sock_common. A timewait
or request sock handed to bpf_sock_destroy() by the tcp iterator is
neither, so reading sk->sk_protocol runs past the object:

Only check sk_protocol on full socks. tcp_abort() already knows how to
deal with TIME_WAIT and NEW_SYN_RECV socks. Also fix the comment, it
never matched the code.
