"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\n6lowpan: fix NHC entry use-after-free on error path\n\nlowpan_nhc_do_uncompression() looks up an NHC descriptor while holding\nlowpan_nhc_lock. If the descriptor has no uncompress callback, the error\npath drops the lock before printing nhc->name.\n\nlowpan_nhc_del() removes descriptors under the same lock and then relies\non synchronize_net() before the owning module can be unloaded. That only\nwaits for net RX RCU readers. lowpan_header_decompress() is also exported\nand can be reached from callers that are not necessarily covered by the net\ncore RX critical section, for example the Bluetooth 6LoWPAN L2CAP receive\npath.\n\nThis leaves a race where one task drops lowpan_nhc_lock in the error path,\nanother task unregisters and frees the matching descriptor after\nsynchronize_net() returns, and the first task then dereferences nhc->name\nfor the warning.\n\nWith the post-unlock window widened, KASAN reports:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lowpan_nhc_do_uncompression+0x1f4/0x220\n Read of size 8\n lowpan_nhc_do_uncompression\n lowpan_header_decompress\n\nFix this by printing the warning before dropping lowpan_nhc_lock, so the\ndescriptor name is read while unregister is still excluded. The malformed\npacket is still rejected with -ENOTSUPP."

"value": "AV:A - An adjacent Bluetooth LE peer can deliver a crafted IPHC/NHC frame through the unauthenticated L2CAP IPSP receive path to the vulnerable decompressor.\nAC:H - Exploitation requires the matching loadable NHC descriptor to be unregistered and freed during the tiny post-unlock window, and the adjacent attacker cannot independently force that module-unload side of the race.\nPR:N - The Bluetooth packet-processing path requires no attacker privileges or authenticated pairing because the IPSP channel uses BT_SECURITY_LOW; CAP_SYS_MODULE belongs to the victim-side unload actor.\nUI:R - Successful triggering requires a victim administrator or module-management action to unload the matching NHC module while the malicious packet is being processed.\nS:U - The vulnerability compromises the affected host kernel without crossing a separate virtualization, IOMMU, or security-authority boundary.\nC:H - The freed descriptor's name pointer is dereferenced as a string, so reused contents can cause an unbounded kernel-memory read and disclosure through the kernel log.\nI:H - As a kernel-space use-after-free, freed-object replacement is conservatively treated as potentially enabling memory-corruption or control-flow compromise.\nA:H - Dereferencing an invalid freed descriptor or string pointer can produce a kernel oops or panic and render the system unavailable."
