CVE-2026-53276 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: ISO: Fix a use-after-free of the hci_conn pointer In iso_sock_rebind_bc(), the bis pointer is cached, then the socket lock is dropped: bis = iso_pi(sk)->conn->hcon; /* Release the socket before lookups since that requires hci_dev_lock * which shall not be acquired while holding sock_lock for proper * ordering. */ release_sock(sk); hci_dev_lock(bis->hdev); During the unlocked window, could a concurrent close() destroy the connection and free the bis structure, causing hci_dev_lock(bis->hdev) to access memory after it is freed, fix this by using the hdev reference which was safely acquired via iso_conn_get_hdev().
A use-after-free vulnerability has been identified in the Bluetooth ISO handling of the Linux kernel. The issue arises in the 'iso_sock_rebind_bc()' function, where the 'bis' pointer is cached before the socket lock is released. This creates a window of opportunity for a concurrent 'close()' operation to destroy the connection and free the 'bis' structure. As a result, the subsequent call to 'hci_dev_lock(bis->hdev)' attempts to access memory that has already been freed. The vulnerability has been addressed by modifying the code to use a reference to 'hdev' that is safely acquired, preventing the use-after-free condition.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for downloading the patched version are available on the Linux kernel official website.
