Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth: af_bluetooth: Fix deadlock

Attemting to do sock_lock on .recvmsg may cause a deadlock as shown
bellow, so instead of using sock_sock this uses sk_receive_queue.lock
on bt_sock_ioctl to avoid the UAF:

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
