In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix use-after-free in l2cap_conn_del()
When l2cap_recv_frame() is invoked to receive data, and the cid is L2CAP_CID_A2MP, if the channel does not exist, it will create a channel. However, after a channel is created, the hold operation of the channel is not performed. In this case, the value of channel reference counting is 1. As a result, after hci_error_reset() is triggered, l2cap_conn_del() invokes the close hook function of A2MP to release the channel. Then l2cap_chan_unlock(chan) will trigger UAF issue.
The process is as follows: Receive data: l2cap_data_channel() a2mp_channel_create() --->channel ref is 2 l2cap_chan_put() --->channel ref is 1
Triger event: hci_error_reset() hci_dev_do_close() ... l2cap_disconn_cfm() l2cap_conn_del() l2cap_chan_hold() --->channel ref is 2 l2cap_chan_del() --->channel ref is 1 a2mp_chan_close_cb() --->channel ref is 0, release channel l2cap_chan_unlock() --->UAF of channel
