CVE-2026-98736
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_conn: Lock parent access during enhanced SCO setup
Bluetooth: hci_conn: Lock parent access during enhanced SCO setup
hci_enhanced_setup_sync() runs on the request workqueue without the
hci_dev_lock held by its caller when setup was queued. Its CVSD
capability check and find_next_esco_param() dereference conn->parent
while the receive workqueue can unlink and release that parent.
The following interleaving can cause a use-after-free:
hci_enhanced_setup_sync() hci_disconn_complete_evt()
load conn->parent
hci_dev_lock()
hci_conn_del(ACL parent)
unlink SCO child
drop link's parent reference
clear child->parent
release ACL parent
bt_link_release()
kfree(parent)
hci_dev_unlock()
read parent->features[0][3]
The reference held for the queued SCO child does not keep its ACL parent
alive after unlinking. Commit 42de40abe25d ('Bluetooth: hci_conn: fix the
SCO setup context lifetime') protects the child stored in the queued
context, but leaves these parent accesses unprotected.
With a 40 ms diagnostic delay after loading conn->parent, an instrumented
kernel based on fd179f8a05be, which already contains 42de40abe25d,

The accessed address is 71 bytes into the freed ACL parent, at its
features[0][3] byte; the queued SCO child is a different object. The
diagnostic preserves the loaded parent across the delay, matching the
unmodified compiled capability check, and does not change the parent
references or teardown path.
Hold hci_dev_lock() across the codec switch, including every call to
find_next_esco_param(), and release it on all selection errors. Keep
configure_datapath_sync() outside the critical section because it waits
for HCI events. Preserve parameter selection and existing return values.
