When the server is ready to close, it calls tcp_close(); if tcp_close()
does not return ERR_OK, it calls tcp_abort(). If it was tcp_abort(),
then tcp_arg and the tcp_poll and tcp_err callbacks are retained.
tcp_poll or tcp_err then initiate finalizing the pcb. Otherwise
(tcp_close() succeeded), the pcb is finalized right away.

The pcb is finalized by setting tcp_arg and all of the callbacks to NULL.

See these comments on tcp_abort:

"The pcb is deallocated"

and

"ATTENTION: When calling this from one of the TCP callbacks, make
sure you always return ERR_ABRT (and never return ERR_ABRT otherwise
or you will risk accessing deallocated memory or memory leaks!"

This might indicate a use-after-free error after your tcp_abort calls?
