CVE-2026-80914
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: fix use-after-free of listener socket in iso_conn_ready
iso_conn_ready() looks up the BIS listener socket with iso_get_sock(), which takes a reference, and then, without re-checking its state, creates a child socket from it:
parent = iso_get_sock(hdev, ...); if (!parent) return;
lock_sock(parent); sk = iso_sock_alloc(sock_net(parent), NULL, BTPROTO_ISO, ...); ... iso_chan_add(conn, sk, parent); ... release_sock(parent); sock_put(parent);
If the listener socket is closed concurrently, between iso_get_sock() and lock_sock(), the reference taken by iso_get_sock() may be the last one: the close path drops the link-list reference, and once iso_conn_ready() drops its own reference at the end of the function the socket is freed. The child socket, however, is already linked to the freed parent, and a later disconnect of the child runs iso_chan_del() -> bt_accept_unlink(), which dereferences the dangling parent pointer into the freed accept queue (a use-after-free). The same dangling pointer is also dereferenced through parent->***() in iso_chan_del().
Fix it the same way the connected (non-BIS) path was fixed in commit 0d255e63fcf3 ("Bluetooth: ISO: hold sk properly in iso_conn_ready"): after taking the socket lock, re-check that the parent is still a listening, alive socket, and bail out otherwise.
