a Bluetooth-range attacker can induce firmware asserts over the air and influence the dump packet stream, matching the Adjacent classification used for Bluetooth/devcoredump issues (CVE-2025-38592, CVE-2025-37918).\nAC:L - `hci_devcd_append()` queues the skb to another workqueue that frees it, so the UAF window opens on every appended packet once `cnt > 255`, and a single ~1 MB coredump produces hundreds of such packets — the attacker gets many free attempts and can repeat the trigger, so no condition outside their control is required.\nPR:N - No privilege check, capability test, or authentication exists anywhere on the path — the code runs unconditionally from the driver's rx workqueue on data received from the controller, with no userspace involvement at all.\nUI:N - The coredump path is driven entirely by controller-emitted firmware dump packets processed asynchronously in a kernel workqueue; no victim action is needed.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel heap state and is exploited within the kernel's own security authority, with no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - Both `skb->len` and the `skb->data` pointer are read from the freed `skbuff_head_cache` object and then used as the address of a 12-byte `memcmp`, so an attacker who sprays the readily-reusable skb slab obtains a controlled arbitrary-address read whose outcome is observable via whether a devcoredump is emitted to userspace.\nI:H - A use-after-free on a heavily reused slab cache is a heap-grooming primitive: the stale object drives control flow (`hci_devcd_complete()` and the coredump state machine) from attacker-groomed memory, and per standard kernel UAF treatment this is exploitable for memory corruption.\nA:H - The freed `skb->data`/`skb->len` pair produces a wild-pointer dereference in `memcmp`, causing a kernel oops/panic (confirmed by the KASAN slab-use-after-free report), and the condition recurs for every dump packet." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/bluetooth/btmtk.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0b70151328781a89c89e4cf3fae21fc0e98d869e", "lessThan": "ecdcaea0e4057171ea4c3783e1cc1c900ad99125", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0b70151328781a89c89e4cf3fae21fc0e98d869e", "lessThan": "d20ff1d3cb40479789368f502eedb0a00e4161fc", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0b70151328781a89c89e4cf3fae21fc0e98d869e", "lessThan": "b548f5e9456c568155499d9ebac675c0d7a296e8", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/bluetooth/btmtk.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.6", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.6", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.67", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.13", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.67" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.6" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.13" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ecdcaea0e4057171ea4c3783e1cc1c900ad99125" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d20ff1d3cb40479789368f502eedb0a00e4161fc" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b548f5e9456c568155499d9ebac675c0d7a296e8" } ], "title": "Bluetooth: btmtk: avoid UAF in btmtk_process_coredump", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "scope": "UNCHANGED", "version": "3.1", "baseScore": 7.8, "attackVector": "LOCAL", "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "userInteraction": "NONE", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH" } }, { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2024-56653", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "total" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2025-02-10T17:12:36.149628Z" } } } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-416", "description": "CWE-416 Use After Free" } ] } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2025-02-10T17:21:07.909Z" } } ] } }
