{"id":"AZL-96246","summary":"CVE-2026-74509 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nBluetooth: hci_sync: Fix advertising data UAFs\n\nhci_find_adv_instance() returns an adv_info pointer that is valid only\nwhile hdev-\u003elock is held.  The advertising command-sync paths perform\ninstance lookups without that lock and, in some cases, retain the pointer\nwhile waiting for a controller response.\n\nAn advertising termination event can therefore interleave as follows:\n\n  hci_cmd_sync_work                 hci_rx_work\n  hci_find_adv_instance()\n  __hci_cmd_sync_status()\n    wait for controller reply       hci_dev_lock()\n                                    hci_remove_adv_instance()\n                                      kfree(adv)\n  adv-\u003escan_rsp_changed = false\n\nKASAN reported:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in hci_set_ext_scan_rsp_data_sync+0x2e1/0x300\n  Write of size 1 at addr ffff88810a45d21d by task kworker/u17:0/88\n  Workqueue: hci0 hci_cmd_sync_work\n  Call Trace:\n   hci_set_ext_scan_rsp_data_sync+0x2e1/0x300\n   hci_schedule_adv_instance_sync+0x390/0x4c0\n   hci_cmd_sync_work+0x173/0x300\n  Allocated by task 87:\n   hci_add_adv_instance+0x538/0xac0\n   add_advertising+0x885/0x1160\n  Freed by task 89:\n   kfree+0x131/0x3c0\n   hci_remove_adv_instance+0x1d8/0x3b0\n   hci_le_ext_adv_term_evt+0x17b/0x730\n\nProtect the instance lookup and payload construction in the extended\nadvertising, scan response, and periodic advertising data paths.  Snapshot\nthe advertising parameters under hdev-\u003elock, but release the lock before\nwaiting for the controller.\n\nClear advertising-data dirty bits before issuing their commands and\nrestore them after a failure using a fresh lookup.  Likewise, update the\nreported transmit power through a fresh lookup after the parameter command\ncompletes.  No adv_info pointer then survives an HCI command wait.","modified":"2026-08-30T05:26:50Z","published":"2026-08-15T13:17:55Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-74509"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-74509"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-96246.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
