CVE-2025-40318

Linux Kernel < 6.1.159, 6.2.0-6.6.117, 6.7.0-6.12.58, 6.9.0-6.17.8 - Bluetooth HCI UAF

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hci_sync: fix race in hci_cmd_sync_dequeue_once hci_cmd_sync_dequeue_once() does lookup and then cancel the entry under two separate lock sections. Meanwhile, hci_cmd_sync_work() can also delete the same entry, leading to double list_del() and "UAF". Fix this by holding cmd_sync_work_lock across both lookup and cancel, so that the entry cannot be removed concurrently.
