CVE-2026-72336 : Detail

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: 6lowpan: hold L2CAP conn across debugfs control get_l2cap_conn() looks up an LE hci_conn under hdev protection, but then drops that protection before reading hcon->l2cap_data and before lowpan_control_write() later dereferences conn->hcon. A disconnect or device close can tear down the same L2CAP connection in that window. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: 6LoWPAN control write: HCI disconnect/device close: 1. get_l2cap_conn() finds hcon 1. hci_disconn_cfm() dispatches and hcon->l2cap_data. the L2CAP disconnect callback. 2. get_l2cap_conn() drops hdev 2. l2cap_conn_del() clears protection and returns conn. hcon->l2cap_data and drops the L2CAP connection reference. 3. lowpan_control_write() reads 3. hci_conn_del() removes and drops conn->hcon. the HCI connection. Take a reference to the L2CAP connection with l2cap_conn_hold_unless_zero() while hdev is still locked, and drop that reference after the debugfs command's last use of conn. This mirrors the existing L2CAP ACL receive-side handoff and keeps the connection dereferenceable after leaving hdev protection. Export the existing helper so the bluetooth_6lowpan module can use the same lifetime primitive.
