Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: serialize security confirmation handling
rfcomm_security_cfm() looks up a session on session_list and then walks
its DLC list without holding rfcomm_mutex. Since RFCOMM session teardown
uses rfcomm_mutex, krfcommd can close and free the same session and DLCs
concurrently:
hci_rx_work krfcommd
----------- ---------
rfcomm_session_get()
rfcomm_lock()
rfcomm_session_close()
rfcomm_dlc_unlink()
rfcomm_session_del()
kfree(s)
rfcomm_unlock()
walk s->dlcs
The callback can then read a freed session list head and touch freed DLCs
while updating their flags or timers.
Serialize the session lookup and DLC traversal in rfcomm_security_cfm()
with rfcomm_mutex. This matches the existing RFCOMM session lifetime
rules and prevents concurrent rfcomm_session_del() / rfcomm_dlc_unlink()
from tearing the objects down while the callback is using them.
