- Summary
- Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free Read in l2cap_send_cmd
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free Read in l2capsendcmd
After the hci sync command releases l2capconn, the hci receive data work queue references the released l2capconn when sending to the upper layer. Add hci dev lock to the hci receive data work queue to synchronize the two.
