hcon->l2cap_data is installed by l2cap_conn_add() from l2cap_connect_cfm()/l2cap_chan_connect() on that HCI connection, so the triggering peer must be in Bluetooth radio range.\nAC:L - The attacker creates the ACL/LE link so l2cap_conn_add() publishes hcon->l2cap_data, then tears it down so l2cap_conn_del() or the last l2cap_conn_put() from l2cap_chan_destroy() (rfcomm_process_rx on rfcomm_run) frees the object while hci_conn_timeout() reads conn->disc_reason; both sides are attacker-driven and retryable.\nPR:N - HCI Connection Complete delivers l2cap_connect_cfm() \u2192 l2cap_conn_add() and later disc_work with no host uid or capability check; SDP (PSM 0x0001) and RFCOMM session close on remote disconnect likewise need no pairing, so an unauthenticated Bluetooth peer is enough.\nUI:N - hci_conn_timeout() runs from hdev->workqueue after the last hci_conn_drop() once the adapter is powered and connectable; incoming ACL/LE setup, RFCOMM/L2CAP teardown, and the disconnect timer need no per-attack user click.\nS:U - The UAF is of the host kmalloc l2cap_conn used by l2cap_disconn_ind() and only corrupts that kernel's Bluetooth/HCI state, with no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossing.\nC:H - l2cap_disconn_ind() locklessly loads hcon->l2cap_data and reads conn->disc_reason after l2cap_conn_free() has kfree'd the kmalloc-1k object, so a sprayed replacement discloses kernel heap contents through that dangling pointer.\nI:H - The same freed l2cap_conn can be reallocated under attacker control while hci_conn_timeout() still holds the pointer; heap UAF of this object enables spraying and write/control-flow hijack, and the stale disc_reason is consumed as the HCI abort reason.\nA:H - The syzbot report is a slab-use-after-free read of conn->disc_reason in l2cap_disconn_ind() from the hci_conn_timeout worker, which oopses or panics the kernel when the freed l2cap_conn slab is touched."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c"], "versions": [{"version": "ab4eedb790cae44313759b50fe47da285e2519d5", "lessThan": "b495a3a9b33bc4e4613e685bf5c96c136caa22d8", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "ab4eedb790cae44313759b50fe47da285e2519d5", "lessThan": "2b66c83ff1751d6bd3201b3017206262ab46dc05", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "efc30877bd4bc85fefe98d80af60fafc86e5775e", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "f87271d21dd4ee83857ca11b94e7b4952749bbae", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "18ab6b6078fa8191ca30a3065d57bf35d5635761", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6.6.84", "lessThan": "6.7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.20", "lessThan": "6.13", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.13.8", "lessThan": "6.14", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.14", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.14", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3-rc1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.6"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.14", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3-rc1"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6.84"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.12.20"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13.8"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b495a3a9b33bc4e4613e685bf5c96c136caa22d8"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2b66c83ff1751d6bd3201b3017206262ab46dc05"}], "title": "Bluetooth: L2CAP: use proto_lock for l2cap_data to fix l2cap_disconn_ind", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
