Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
Bluetooth: bnep: Fix UAF read of dev->name<br />
<br />
bnep_add_connection() needs to keep holding the bnep_session_sem while<br />
reading dev->name (just like bnep_get_connlist() does); otherwise the<br />
bnep_session() thread can concurrently free the net_device, which can for<br />
example be triggered by a concurrent bnep_del_connection().<br />
<br />
(This UAF is fairly uninteresting from a security perspective;<br />
calling bnep_add_connection() requires passing a capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN)<br />
check. It also requires completely tearing down a netdev during a fairly<br />
tight race window.)
