Vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Exploitability: 1.8 / Impact: 3.6
Source: NVD
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_event: Fix using rcu_read_(un)lock while iterating
The usage of rcu_read_(un)lock while inside list_for_each_entry_rcu is
not safe since for the most part entries fetched this way shall be
treated as rcu_dereference:
Note that the value returned by rcu_dereference() is valid
only within the enclosing RCU read-side critical section [1]_.
For example, the following is **not** legal::
rcu_read_lock();
p = rcu_dereference(head.next);
rcu_read_unlock();
x = p->address; /* BUG!!! */
rcu_read_lock();
y = p->data; /* BUG!!! */
rcu_read_unlock();
