Summary
Bluetooth: hci: fix null-ptr-deref in hci_read_supported_codecs
Details

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

Bluetooth: hci: fix null-ptr-deref in hcireadsupported_codecs

Fix _hcicmdsyncsk() to return not NULL for unknown opcodes.

_hcicmdsyncsk() returns NULL if a command returns a status event. However, it also returns NULL where an opcode doesn't exist in the hcicc table because hcicmdcompleteevt() assumes status = skb->data[0] for unknown opcodes. This leads to null-ptr-deref in cmdsync for HCIOPREADLOCALCODECS as there is no hcicc for HCIOPREADLOCALCODECS, which always assumes status = skb->data[0].
