UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80764: Use After Free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hcievent: fix LE list UAF on reset hciccreset() clears the LE accept and resolving lists without taking hdev->lock. Other command-complete handlers serialize updates to these lists with that lock, and the debugfs readers hold it while walking them. This permits the reset completion and a debugfs read to interleave as follows: hcirxwork debugfs reader ----------- -------------- lock hdev->lock fetch current entry listdel(entry) kfree(entry) read entry fields The reader then dereferences a freed list entry and may follow its stale next pointer.
