DescriptionNVD

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

Bluetooth: hci_conn: fix potential UAF in set_cig_params_sync

hci_conn lookup and field access must be covered by hdev lock in set_cig_params_sync, otherwise it's possible it is freed concurrently.

Take hdev lock to prevent hci_conn from being deleted or modified concurrently. Just RCU lock is not suitable here, as we also want to avoid "tearing" in the configuration.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Linux kernel Bluetooth subsystem allows local authenticated attackers to achieve arbitrary code execution with high privileges. The vulnerability exists in set_cig_params_sync where hci_conn objects can be freed or modified concurrently during lookup and field access due to inadequate locking. …

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running Linux kernel versions 6.6.x (before patch), 6.12.x (before 6.12.82), 6.18.x (before 6.18.23), 6.19.x (before 6.19.13), and 7.0.x to determine exposure scope. Within 7 days: Prioritize patching for servers and systems with local user access, applying vendor-released patches to kernel 6.6.x, 6.12.82+, 6.18.23+, 6.19.13+, or 7.0+ depending on current kernel branch. …
