Descriptions

bt_sock_recvmsg in net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c in the Linux kernel through 6.6.8 has a use-after-free because of a bt_sock_ioctl race condition.

bt_sock_recvmsg en net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c en el kernel de Linux hasta 6.6.8 tiene un use-after-free debido a una condición de ejecución bt_sock_ioctl.

A flaw was found in the Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel. A race condition between the bt_sock_recvmsg() and bt_sock_ioctl() functions could lead to a use-after-free on a socket buffer ("skb"). This flaw allows a local user to cause a denial of service condition or potential code execution.

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8 Extended Update Support. Issues addressed include a use-after-free vulnerability.
