摘要:

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

Bluetooth: Avoid potential use-after-free in hci_error_reset

While handling the HCI_EV_HARDWARE_ERROR event, if the underlying
BT controller is not responding, the GPIO reset mechanism would
free the hci_dev and lead to a use-after-free in hci_error_reset.

Here's the call trace observed on a ChromeOS device with Intel AX201:
queue_work_on+0x3e/0x6c
__hci_cmd_sync_sk+0x2ee/0x4c0 [bluetooth <HASH:3b4a6&gt;]
? init_wait_entry+0x31/0x31
__hci_cmd_sync+0x16/0x20 [bluetooth <HASH:3b4a 6&gt;]
hci_error_reset+0x4f/0xa4 [bluetooth <HASH:3b4a 6&gt;]
process_one_work+0x1d8/0x33f
worker_thread+0x21b/0x373
kthread+0x13a/0x152
? pr_cont_work+0x54/0x54
? kthread_blkcg+0x31/0x31
ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30

This patch holds the reference count on the hci_dev while processing
a HCI_EV_HARDWARE_ERROR event to avoid potential crash.
