Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> Bluetooth: hci_sync: annotate data-races around hdev-&gt;req_status<br /> <br /> __hci_cmd_sync_sk() sets hdev-&gt;req_status under hdev-&gt;req_lock:<br /> <br /> hdev-&gt;req_status = HCI_REQ_PEND;<br /> <br /> However, several other functions read or write hdev-&gt;req_status without<br /> holding any lock:<br /> <br /> - hci_send_cmd_sync() reads req_status in hci_cmd_work (workqueue)<br /> - hci_cmd_sync_complete() reads/writes from HCI event completion<br /> - hci_cmd_sync_cancel() / hci_cmd_sync_cancel_sync() read/write<br /> - hci_abort_conn() reads in connection abort path<br /> <br /> Since __hci_cmd_sync_sk() runs on hdev-&gt;req_workqueue while<br /> hci_send_cmd_sync() runs on hdev-&gt;workqueue, these are different<br /> workqueues that can execute concurrently on different CPUs. The plain<br /> C accesses constitute a data race.<br /> <br /> Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations on all concurrent accesses<br /> to hdev-&gt;req_status to prevent potential compiler optimizations that<br /> could affect correctness (e.g., load fusing in the wait_event<br /> condition or store reordering).
