"value": "AV:L - Exploitation requires issuing MGMT_OP_START_SERVICE_DISCOVERY/START_DISCOVERY on a local AF_BLUETOOTH HCI control socket via sendmsg/writev, so the attacker must have local system access. A remote/adjacent Bluetooth peer can only pump the workqueue side of the race (via LE connect/disconnect events), not the mgmt side, so local access is mandatory.\nAC:L - The attacker drives both sides of the race from the same socket — one thread loops START_SERVICE_DISCOVERY/STOP_DISCOVERY while another loops SET_SCAN_PARAMS/SET_DEVICE_FLAGS/adv-monitor ops to queue update_passive_scan_sync() — and the free paths take disjoint locks (hci_dev_lock vs hci_req_sync_lock), so the window is reachable and retryable indefinitely on a PREEMPT SMP kernel. The crash was in fact observed spontaneously in production with ordinary bluetoothd traffic.\nPR:L - The mgmt channel requires CAP_NET_ADMIN, but in the realistic Bluetooth deployments (Android's non-root AID_BLUETOOTH service, ChromeOS/embedded/automotive BT daemons) that capability is held by an unprivileged, SELinux-confined, remotely-reachable service process rather than by root, so a compromised Bluetooth daemon — far short of full admin — suffices to reach the bug.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; the attacker's own threads issue every mgmt command required to open and hit the race window. No pairing, mount, or user-initiated scan is involved.\nS:U - The double free corrupts kernel heap metadata within the same kernel security authority; there is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The double free of an attacker-sized (up to ~64 KB) and attacker-filled buffer corrupts the SLUB freelist and leaves a dangling hdev->discovery.uuids that is still dereferenced by is_filter_match()/eir_has_uuids() on the advertisement RX path, yielding a use-after-free read that can be groomed into arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - A double free hands the same slab object to two owners, a classic primitive for cross-cache/overlapping-allocation attacks that convert into arbitrary kernel writes and control-flow hijack; the attacker fully controls the object's size class and contents, making the grooming practical.\nA:H - The reported, directly observed consequence is a kernel BUG() in __slab_free (mm/slub.c:547) taking down the machine, and freelist corruption reliably panics the kernel even when not weaponized further."
