Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: 6lowpan: hold L2CAP conn across debugfs control

get_l2cap_conn() looks up an LE hci_conn under hdev protection, but then drops that protection before reading hcon->l2cap_data and before lowpan_control_write() later dereferences conn->hcon. A disconnect or device close can tear down the same L2CAP connection in that window.

The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path:

6LoWPAN control write: HCI disconnect/device close: 1. get_l2cap_conn() finds hcon 1. hci_disconn_cfm() dispatches and hcon->l2cap_data. the L2CAP disconnect callback. 2. get_l2cap_conn() drops hdev 2. l2cap_conn_del() clears protection and returns conn. hcon->l2cap_data and drops the L2CAP connection reference. 3. lowpan_control_write() reads 3. hci_conn_del() removes and drops conn->hcon. the HCI connection.

Take a reference to the L2CAP connection with l2cap_conn_hold_unless_zero() while hdev is still locked, and drop that reference after the debugfs command's last use of conn. This mirrors the existing L2CAP ACL receive-side handoff and keeps the connection dereferenceable after leaving hdev protection. Export the existing helper so the bluetooth_6lowpan module can use the same lifetime primitive.

A disconnect or\ndevice close can tear down the same L2CAP connection in that window.\n\nThe buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order\nwithin that path:\n\n6LoWPAN control write:              HCI disconnect/device close:\n  1. get_l2cap_conn() finds hcon      1. hci_disconn_cfm() dispatches\n     and hcon-\u003el2cap_data.               the L2CAP disconnect callback.\n  2. get_l2cap_conn() drops hdev      2. l2cap_conn_del() clears\n     protection and returns conn.        hcon-\u003el2cap_data and drops the\n                                         L2CAP connection reference.\n  3. lowpan_control_write() reads     3. hci_conn_del() removes and drops\n     conn-\u003ehcon.                         the HCI connection.\n\nTake a reference to the L2CAP connection with\nl2cap_conn_hold_unless_zero() while hdev is still locked, and drop that\nreference after the debugfs command\u0027s last use of conn.  This mirrors the\nexisting L2CAP ACL receive-side handoff and keeps the connection\ndereferenceable after leaving hdev protection.
