In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: fix double free in 'hci_discovery_filter_clear()'
Function 'hci_discovery_filter_clear()' frees 'uuids' array and then
sets it to NULL. There is a tiny chance of the following race:
'hci_cmd_sync_work()'
'update_passive_scan_sync()'
'hci_update_passive_scan_sync()'
'hci_discovery_filter_clear()'
kfree(uuids);
<-------------------------preempted-------------------------------->
'start_service_discovery()'
'hci_discovery_filter_clear()'
kfree(uuids); // DOUBLE FREE
<-------------------------preempted-------------------------------->
uuids = NULL;
To fix it let's add locking around 'kfree()' call and NULL pointer
assignment. Otherwise the following backtrace fires:

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem. A race condition in the hci_discovery_filter_clear() function can lead to a double free vulnerability, which is a type of memory corruption. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to trigger a kernel bug, causing the system to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This is a MODERATE impact flaw in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Host Controller Interface (HCI) component. A race condition within the hci_discovery_filter_clear() function can lead to a double-free vulnerability, potentially causing a kernel crash due to a null pointer problem.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the bluetooth kernel module from loading. This can be achieved by creating a modprobe configuration file.
- Create or edit
/etc/modprobe.d/disable-bluetooth.conf:
- Unload the module if it is currently loaded:
- Reboot the system for the changes to take full effect.
Note that disabling the
bluetoothmodule will prevent all Bluetooth functionality on the system.
