Red Hat: CVE-2024-36013: kernel: Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free in l2cap_connect() (Multiple Advisories)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free in l2cap_connect()

Extend a critical section to prevent chan from early freeing.
Also make the l2cap_connect() return type void. Nothing is using the
returned value but it is ugly to return a potentially freed pointer.
Making it void will help with backports because earlier kernels did use
the return value. Now the compile will break for kernels where this
patch is not a complete fix.

Call stack summary:

[use]
l2cap_bredr_sig_cmd
l2cap_connect
+ mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock);
¦ chan = pchan->ops->new_connection(pchan); ¦ __l2cap_chan_add(conn, chan);
¦ l2cap_chan_hold(chan);
¦ list_add(&chan->list, &conn->chan_l); ... (1)
+ mutex_unlock(&conn->chan_lock);
chan->conf_state ... (4)
[free]
l2cap_conn_del
+ mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock);
¦ foreach chan in conn->chan_l: ... (2)
¦ l2cap_chan_put(chan);
¦ l2cap_chan_destroy
¦ kfree(chan) ... (3) + mutex_unlock(&conn->chan_lock);
