CVE-2025-21969 Information
Description
In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free Read in l2cap_send_cmd
After the hci sync command releases l2cap_conn the hci receive data work queue references the released l2cap_conn when sending to the upper layer. Add hci dev lock to the hci receive data work queue to synchronize the two.
