Sources disagree (Low–High)AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Bluetooth-adjacent (AV:A); a timing-dependent teardown race justifies AC:H; described impact is teardown instability/DoS (A:H) with no evidenced confidentiality or integrity effect, so C:N/I:N pending CWE confirmation.
vuln.today treats the vendor’s rating as authoritative. A higher third-party CVSS (e.g. CISA-ADP) is shown for transparency but does not drive the headline severity.

Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: Set HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE during device close
Since hci_dev_close_sync() can now be called during the reset path, we should also set HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE. This avoids queuing timeouts while the hdev workqueue is being drained.
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service and potential memory-corruption exposure in the Linux kernel Bluetooth stack (hci_sync) arises because hci_dev_close_sync() failed to set the HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE flag during device close, allowing command timeouts to be queued while the hdev workqueue is being drained on the reset path. The fix, present in stable trees (6.12.93, 6.18.35, 7.0.12, 7.1), closes a race that a Bluetooth-adjacent attacker could trigger during controller reset. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS risk is low (0.20%), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
The affected component is the Linux kernel Bluetooth Host Controller Interface synchronization layer (net/bluetooth/hci_sync.c). HCI commands are dispatched through a per-device (hdev) workqueue, and each command arms a timeout work item. When a device is closed via hci_dev_close_sync() - a code path that can now be reached during controller reset - the workqueue is drained. Without the HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE flag being set, new command-timeout work could still be enqueued onto a workqueue that is mid-drain, creating a race window between teardown and pending work. This is a classic concurrency/lifetime hazard (use-after-free / race-during-teardown class); note the input reports CWE as N/A, so the exact weakness class is not authoritatively assigned. CPE data identifies the vendor/product only generically as cpe:2.3:a:linux:linux:*, with the specific subsystem being Bluetooth.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: update to a fixed stable kernel - 6.12.93, 6.18.35, 7.0.12, or 7.1, or backport the fix commits (9cebe4680bb9a72f80c6541eb24af06db7a1fbc9, 47330cc875b36a1cf7b3543cb2cf90a7c603ce0e, 60bceb9a4c693e68cc90ba4b2dfb9e000e8638ff, 525daaea459fc215f432de1b8debbd9144bf97b0) from git.kernel.org/stable. Apply the distribution kernel update matching your branch and reboot. As a compensating control until patched, disable or unload the Bluetooth stack on systems that do not require it (e.g. 'rmmod btusb bluetooth' / blacklist the modules, or 'rfkill block bluetooth'), which removes the attack surface entirely at the cost of losing Bluetooth functionality; where Bluetooth is required, restrict physical/RF proximity and disable the radio when not in use, since the vector is adjacent rather than network-wide.
