[SRU][F/J/N/O][PATCH 0/1] CVE-2024-50264

[Magali Lemes]

[Impact]
During loopback communication, a dangling pointer can be created in
vsk->trans, potentially leading to a Use-After-Free condition.  This
issue is resolved by initializing vsk->trans to NULL.

Noble:    Clean cherry-pick
Jammy:    Clean cherry-pick
Focal:    Clean cherry-pick
Bionic:   Fix sent to ESM ML

[Test Case]

[Where problems could occur]
This patch touches virtio transport for vsock, but due to its limited
scope issues here are unlikely to happen.
