CVE-2026-64406CVE-2026-64406
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: fix UAF in bt_accept_dequeue()
bt_accept_get() takes a temporary reference before dropping the accept
queue lock. bt_accept_dequeue() currently drops that reference before
bt_accept_unlink(), leaving only the queue reference.
bt_accept_unlink() drops the queue reference. The subsequent
sock_hold() therefore accesses freed memory if it was the final
reference, as observed by KASAN during listening L2CAP socket cleanup.
Retain the temporary queue-walk reference through unlink and hand it to
the caller on success. Drop it explicitly on the closed and
not-yet-connected paths.
