CVE-2026-89774
Published: September 18, 2026Last modified: September 18, 2026
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: SCO: hold sk properly in sco_conn_ready sk deref in sco_conn_ready must be done either under conn->lock, or holding a refcount, to avoid concurrent close. conn->sk and parent sk is currently accessed without either, and without checking parent->sk_state: [Task 1] [Task 2] sco_sock_release sco_conn_ready sk = conn->sk lock_sock(sk) conn->sk = NULL lock_sock(sk) release_sock(sk) sco_sock_kill(sk) UAF on sk deref and similarly for access to sco_get_sock_listen() return value. Fix possible UAF by holding sk refcount in sco_conn_ready() and making sco_get_sock_listen() increase refcount. Also recheck after lock_sock that the socket is still valid. Adjust conn->sk locking so it's protected also by lock_sock() of the associated socket if any.
