In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: Fix double free in hci_conn_cleanup
syzbot reports a slab use-after-free in hci_conn_hash_flush [1]. After releasing an object using hci_conn_del_sysfs in the hci_conn_cleanup function, releasing the same object again using the hci_dev_put and hci_conn_put functions causes a double free. Here's a simplified flow:
hci_conn_del_sysfs: hci_dev_put put_device kobject_put kref_put kobject_release kobject_cleanup kfree_const kfree(name)
hci_dev_put: ... kfree(name)
hci_conn_put: put_device ... kfree(name)
This patch drop the hci_dev_put and hci_conn_put function call in hci_conn_cleanup function, because the object is freed in hci_conn_del_sysfs function.
This patch also fixes the refcounting in hci_conn_add_sysfs() and hci_conn_del_sysfs() to take into account device_add() failures.
This fixes CVE-2023-28464.
