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

virtio/vsock: Fix accept_queue memory leak

As the final stages of socket destruction may be delayed, it is possible
that virtio_transport_recv_listen() will be called after the accept_queue
has been flushed, but before the SOCK_DONE flag has been set. As a result,
sockets enqueued after the flush would remain unremoved, leading to a
memory leak.

Introduce a sk_shutdown check to disallow vsock_enqueue_accept() during
socket destruction.
