In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: free the skb when the DLC has no owner
rfcomm_recv_data() hands the skb to d->data_ready() and returns 0
without freeing it, so the callback owns the skb from that point on.
The tty implementation frees it when the DLC has been detached from its
device:
static void rfcomm_dev_data_ready(struct rfcomm_dlc *dlc,
struct sk_buff *skb)
{
struct rfcomm_dev *dev = dlc->owner;
if (!dev) {
kfree_skb(skb);
return;
}
The socket implementation returns without freeing it, and the skb is
leaked.
A connected DLC can have no owner: rfcomm_sock_destruct() clears
d->owner, while the DLC itself stays on the session until it is closed.
Data frames that arrive in that window still find d->state ==
BT_CONNECTED in rfcomm_recv_data() and are handed to the callback, one
leaked skb each.
The leak does not stop on its own either. The remote runs out of
credits only once RFCOMM_RX_THROTTLED is set, and for a socket the only
place that sets it is rfcomm_sk_data_ready() itself, below the return.
rfcomm_process_dlcs() keeps granting credits, so the remote keeps
sending and the leak keeps growing.
Free the skb, as the tty side does.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Radio Frequency Communication (RFCOMM) subsystem. When a communication socket is closed while the underlying connection session remains active, incoming data packets are not released from memory. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by continuously transmitting data during socket teardown, causing an unbounded memory leak that results in kernel resource exhaustion and a Denial of Service (DoS).
