In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hcisync: extend connhash lookup critical sections
Using RCU-protected pointers outside the critical sections without refcount is incorrect and may result to UAF.
Extend critical section to cover both hciconnhash lookup and use of the returned conn.
Add surrounding rcureadlock() also when return value is not used, in preparation for RCU lockdep requirement to hcilookuple_connect().
This avoids concurrent deletion of the conn before we are done dereferencing it.
Also, make sure to hold hdev->lock when accessing hdev->accept_list.
