Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
Bluetooth: use hdev->workqueue when queuing hdev->{cmd,ncmd}_timer works<br />
<br />
syzbot is reporting attempt to schedule hdev->cmd_work work from system_wq<br />
WQ into hdev->workqueue WQ which is under draining operation [1], for<br />
commit c8efcc2589464ac7 ("workqueue: allow chained queueing during<br />
destruction") does not allow such operation.<br />
<br />
The check introduced by commit 877afadad2dce8aa ("Bluetooth: When HCI work<br />
queue is drained, only queue chained work") was incomplete.<br />
<br />
Use hdev->workqueue WQ when queuing hdev->{cmd,ncmd}_timer works because<br />
hci_{cmd,ncmd}_timeout() calls queue_work(hdev->workqueue). Also, protect<br />
the queuing operation with RCU read lock in order to avoid calling<br />
queue_delayed_work() after cancel_delayed_work() completed.
