Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: RFCOMM: Fix initial port reference race For RFCOMM_RELEASE_ONHUP devices, rfcomm_tty_install() and __rfcomm_release_dev() both use RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED to decide who drops the initial tty_port reference. The release path tests the bit separately from the install path setting it, so both can drop that reference. The synchronous hangup does not prevent this race: port->tty is not assigned until tty_port_open(), after installation. The following interleaving is possible: 1. Install and release each obtain a reference with rfcomm_dev_get(). 2. Release observes RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED clear. 3. Install sets RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED and drops the initial reference. 4. Release drops the same initial reference again. 5. TTY cleanup drops its reference and frees the device. 6. Release performs its final tty_port_put() on the freed port. KASAN reported: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tty_port_put+0x22/0x190 Write of size 4 at addr ffff8881001d3d5c by task poc/92 Call Trace: tty_port_put+0x22/0x190 rfcomm_dev_ioctl+0x1d4/0x1930 sock_do_ioctl+0x110/0x260 sock_ioctl+0x380/0x590 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x134/0x1c0 Allocated by task 88: rfcomm_dev_ioctl+0x8f6/0x1930 sock_do_ioctl+0x110/0x260 sock_ioctl+0x380/0x590 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x134/0x1c0 Freed by task 65: kfree+0x131/0x3c0 rfcomm_dev_destruct+0x23b/0x2f0 release_one_tty+0xc1/0x370 process_one_work+0x661/0x1090 Use test_and_set_bit() in both paths so that only the caller that changes RFCOMM_TTY_OWNED from clear to set drops the initial reference. Each path keeps its own lookup reference until release or TTY cleanup, preserving the existing callback ordering and error handling.
