 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btusb: reorder cleanup in
 btusb_disconnect to avoid UAF There is a KASAN: slab-use-after-free read in btusb_disconnect(). Calling
 "usb_driver_release_interface(&btusb_driver, data->intf)" will free the btusb data associated with the
 interface. The same data is then used later in the function, hence the UAF. Fix by moving the accesses to
 btusb data to before the data is free'd. (CVE-2025-40283)

Update the linux library and its related packages to version 6.1.159-1 or later.
