Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Bluetooth: hci_conn: fix UAF in hci_enhanced_setup_sync
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 16:03:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260330140347.906689-3-git@aaronesau.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260330140347.906689-2-git@aaronesau.com>
From: Aaron Esau <aaron1esau@gmail.com>
hci_setup_sync queues hci_enhanced_setup_sync with conn_handle as data
without taking a reference on conn. hci_conn_del tries to dequeue with
conn as data, but the pointer comparison fails (data is conn_handle).
The existing hci_conn_valid check has a TOCTOU gap since conn can be
freed after the check passes. conn_handle also leaks on cancellation
because no destroy callback is set.
Take hci_conn_get on conn, add a destroy callback that frees
conn_handle and drops the reference, and move kfree(conn_handle) from
the sync function to the destroy callback.
Fixes: e07a06b4eb41 ("Bluetooth: Convert SCO configure_datapath to hci_sync")
