{"id":"CVE-2026-98246","published":"2026-10-06T09:18:12.783","lastModified":"2026-10-06T09:18:12.783","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nBluetooth: hci_sync: Serialize local codec list cleanup\n\nhci_dev_close_sync() clears hdev->local_codecs after releasing hdev->lock.\nCodec list additions and both traversals in sco_sock_getsockopt() use that\nlock, but the close path does not. A close and BT_CODEC query can therefore\ninterleave as follows:\n\n  hci_dev_close_sync()          sco_sock_getsockopt()\n                                hci_dev_lock()\n                                fetch codec entry\n  hci_codec_list_clear()\n    kfree(entry)\n                                read entry->id\n\nThe reader then accesses an entry which the close path has freed.

This makes the clear wait for active readers and prevents a new\ntraversal until the list is empty without changing teardown ordering.","cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"cvssVector":null,"cwes":[],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1276c2fafd18499769a28f96f45c5a76d6fc990e","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1ee0c5429dc4a92879bda2554b1bfd4abc6c587c","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4dc1ae5ff75b17e17ec4b74b11cc4b0099e71e00","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/560ed4373c06a58123ecdf9ad5ecaddc87a73382","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9a10987a2f160a44a638c9a35994ca6e3089696e","tags":[]},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f407d52c0d881430d689836d3e7d32aa36f98b5","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
