In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btusb: mediatek: Add locks for usb_driver_claim_interface()
The documentation for usb_driver_claim_interface() says that "the
device lock" is needed when the function is called from places other
than probe(). This appears to be the lock for the USB interface
device. The Mediatek btusb code gets called via this path:
Workqueue: hci0 hci_power_on [bluetooth]
Call trace:
usb_driver_claim_interface
btusb_mtk_claim_iso_intf
btusb_mtk_setup
hci_dev_open_sync
hci_power_on
process_scheduled_works
worker_thread
kthread
With the above call trace the device lock hasn't been claimed. Claim
it.
Without this fix, we'd sometimes see the error "Failed to claim iso
interface". Sometimes we'd even see worse errors, like a NULL pointer
dereference (where `intf->dev.driver` was NULL) with a trace like:
Call trace:
usb_suspend_both
usb_runtime_suspend
__rpm_callback
rpm_suspend
pm_runtime_work
process_scheduled_works
Both errors appear to be fixed with the proper locking.
