{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53046","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  Bluetooth: Fix race condition in hci_cmd_sync_clear  There is a potential race condition in hci_cmd_sync_work and hci_cmd_sync_clear, and could lead to use-after-free. For instance, hci_cmd_sync_work is added to the 'req_workqueue' after cancel_work_sync The entry of 'cmd_sync_work_list' may be freed in hci_cmd_sync_clear, and causing kernel panic when it is used in 'hci_cmd_sync_work'.  Here's the call trace:  dump_stack_lvl+0x49/0x63 print_report.cold+0x5e/0x5d3 ? hci_cmd_sync_work+0x282/0x320 kasan_report+0xaa/0x120 ? hci_cmd_sync_work+0x282/0x320 __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x14/0x20 hci_cmd_sync_work+0x282/0x320 process_one_work+0x77b/0x11c0 ? _raw_spin_lock_irq+0x8e/0xf0 worker_thread+0x544/0x1180 ? poll_idle+0x1e0/0x1e0 kthread+0x285/0x320 ? process_one_work+0x11c0/0x11c0 ? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x30/0x30 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 \u003c/TASK\u003e  Allocated by task 266: kasan_save_stack+0x26/0x50 __kasan_kmalloc+0xae/0xe0 kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x191/0x350 hci_cmd_sync_queue+0x97/0x2b0 hci_update_passive_scan+0x176/0x1d0 le_conn_complete_evt+0x1b5/0x1a00 hci_le_conn_complete_evt+0x234/0x340 hci_le_meta_evt+0x231/0x4e0 hci_event_packet+0x4c5/0xf00 hci_rx_work+0x37d/0x880 process_one_work+0x77b/0x11c0 worker_thread+0x544/0x1180 kthread+0x285/0x320 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30  Freed by task 269: kasan_save_stack+0x26/0x50 kasan_set_track+0x25/0x40 kasan_set_free_info+0x24/0x40 ____kasan_slab_free+0x176/0x1c0 __kasan_slab_free+0x12/0x20 slab_free_freelist_hook+0x95/0x1a0 kfree+0xba/0x2f0 hci_cmd_sync_clear+0x14c/0x210 hci_unregister_dev+0xff/0x440 vhci_release+0x7b/0xf0 __fput+0x1f3/0x970 ____fput+0xe/0x20 task_work_run+0xd4/0x160 do_exit+0x8b0/0x22a0 do_group_exit+0xba/0x2a0 get_signal+0x1e4a/0x25b0 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0x93/0x1f80 exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0xf5/0x1a0 syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x26/0x50 ret_from_fork+0x15/0x30","modified":"2026-09-15T09:03:01.701787071Z","published":"2025-05-02T16:15:23.697Z","upstream":["CVE-2023-53046"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2023-53046"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.1.25-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53046.json"}},{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.1.25-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53046.json"}},{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.1.25-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53046.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
