Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: ISO: Fix data-race on iso_pi fields in hci_get_route calls iso_connect_bis(), iso_connect_cis(), iso_listen_bis(), and iso_conn_big_sync() call hci_get_route() using iso_pi(sk)->dst, iso_pi(sk)->src, and iso_pi(sk)->src_type without holding lock_sock().
These fields may be modified concurrently by connect() or setsockopt() on the same socket, resulting in data-races reported by KCSAN. Fix this by snapshotting the required fields under lock_sock() before calling hci_get_route().
BUG: KCSAN: data-race in memcmp+0x45/0xb0 race at unknown origin, with read to 0xffff8880122135cf of 1 bytes by task 333 on cpu 1: memcmp+0x45/0xb0 hci_get_route+0x27e/0x490 iso_connect_cis+0x4c/0xa10 iso_sock_connect+0x60e/0xb30 __sys_connect_file+0xbd/0xe0 __sys_connect+0xe0/0x110 __x64_sys_connect+0x40/0x50 x64_sys_call+0xcad/0x1c60 do_syscall_64+0x133/0x590 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f This vulnerability, a data-race, occurs because certain functions access socket-related data without proper synchronization.
Specifically, iso_connect_bis(), iso_connect_cis(), iso_listen_bis(), and iso_conn_big_sync() can read critical fields while they are being modified by other operations like connect() or setsockopt(). This concurrent access can lead to unpredictable system behavior and potential integrity issues.
