| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btqcomsmd: destroy RPMsg endpoints before freeing hci_dev
The command and ACL RPMsg endpoints store struct btqcomsmd as their
callback private data. The receive callbacks dereference btq->hdev
without taking an hci_dev reference.
The current teardown order frees the hci_dev before destroying the RPMsg
endpoints in both the hci_register_dev() error path and the driver remove
path. If WCNSS delivers data in that window, the endpoint callback can
run with an already freed hci_dev and pass it to the Bluetooth core.
For qcom_smd endpoints, rpmsg_destroy_ept() closes the channel and clears
the callback under the channel recv_lock. The receive path holds the same
lock while invoking the callback, so destroying the endpoints first both
prevents new callbacks and serializes with any callback already running.
Destroy the command and ACL endpoints before hci_free_dev(). Keep
hci_unregister_dev() first during remove so the HCI core stops issuing
operations before the transport endpoints are shut down. In the full
registration-error cleanup path, return directly after freeing the hci_dev
to avoid falling through to the partial-construction labels and destroying
the endpoints twice. |
