CVE-2026-74509

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hci_sync: Fix advertising data UAFs hci_find_adv_instance() returns an adv_info pointer that is valid only while hdev->lock is held. The advertising command-sync paths perform instance lookups without that lock and, in some cases, retain the pointer while waiting for a controller response. An advertising termination event can therefore interleave as follows: hci_cmd_sync_work hci_rx_work hci_find_adv_instance() __hci_cmd_sync_status() wait for controller reply hci_dev_lock() hci_remove_adv_instance() kfree(adv) adv->scan_rsp_changed = false KASAN reported: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in hci_set_ext_scan_rsp_data_sync+0x2e1/0x300 Write of size 1 at addr ffff88810a45d21d by task kworker/u17:0/88 Workqueue: hci0 hci_cmd_sync_work Call Trace: hci_set_ext_scan_rsp_data_sync+0x2e1/0x300 hci_schedule_adv_instance_sync+0x390/0x4c0 hci_cmd_sync_work+0x173/0x300 Allocated by task 87: hci_add_adv_instance+0x538/0xac0 add_advertising+0x885/0x1160 Freed by task 89: kfree+0x131/0x3c0 hci_remove_adv_instance+0x1d8/0x3b0 hci_le_ext_adv_term_evt+0x17b/0x730 Protect the instance lookup and payload construction in the extended advertising, scan response, and periodic advertising data paths. Snapshot the advertising parameters under hdev->lock, but release the lock before waiting for the controller. Clear advertising-data dirty bits before issuing their commands and restore them after a failure using a fresh lookup. Likewise, update the reported transmit power through a fresh lookup after the parameter command completes. No adv_info pointer then survives an HCI command wait.
