AnalysisCVE.org

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

Bluetooth: 6lowpan: hold L2CAP conn across debugfs control

get_l2cap_conn() looks up an LE hci_conn under hdev protection, but then drops that protection before reading hcon->l2cap_data and before lowpan_control_write() later dereferences conn->hcon. A disconnect or device close can tear down the same L2CAP connection in that window.

The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path:

6LoWPAN control write: HCI disconnect/device close:

get_l2cap_conn() finds hcon 1. hci_disconn_cfm() dispatches

and hcon->l2cap_data. the L2CAP disconnect callback.

get_l2cap_conn() drops hdev 2. l2cap_conn_del() clears

protection and returns conn. hcon->l2cap_data and drops the L2CAP connection reference.

lowpan_control_write() reads 3. hci_conn_del() removes and drops

conn->hcon. the HCI connection.

Take a reference to the L2CAP connection with l2cap_conn_hold_unless_zero() while hdev is still locked, and drop that reference after the debugfs command's last use of conn. This mirrors the existing L2CAP ACL receive-side handoff and keeps the connection dereferenceable after leaving hdev protection. Export the existing helper so the bluetooth_6lowpan module can use the same lifetime primitive.

What every action level means

Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.

Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.

This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.

This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.

Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.

Attack Technique

Information Disclosure MEDIUM

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
